Happy 4th of July!!!

We started out celebrating on the third by driving down to Addison for their big firework show. It was awesome. We decided to get a hotel (free voucher) a few blocks away and it turned out to be the best thing ever!! We had a place to park our car and we just walked over and didn't have to sit in traffic forever! And it was seriously an awesome fireworks show! BB was kinda scared at first but Guy put his hands over his ears and somehow staring at the fireworks just lulled him to sleep! We were so surprised! On the 4th we just took it easy and hung out. Had a barbecue with my Aunt and Uncle and then went with them to fireworks in Plano. They had some really cool light up necklaces that BB loved way more than the fireworks!! He was fascinated with trying to put one side into the other to close the necklace. Ahh the little things that keep him happy! Lots of cities cancelled their fireworks yesterday because the weather showed it was supposed to rain, but it was a perfect night which was great. Now we'll get to go to some of the "rain date" fireworks later! Yay!!

love your blog! I can't belive how good you are to post stuff on here all the time. I'm so terrible with mine. And thanks for making us sound like nice, fun people. You can stop calling us your aunt and uncle....it makes us sound old. :) thanks for letting me peek at it.

How fun! How fun for Brayden to get to stay up to watch the show. My kids were way too cranky. Someday they'll see. We did go to the parade which was a huge hit with them. We miss you guys!
