4th of July

On Tuesday, July 3rd, we went to the Dynamo game.  It was hot  and steamy, the game ended in a tie 0-0, but the firework show afterwards, made it all worth it!!!

We had a pretty low key fourth of July this year.  We spent the morning being lazy and watching Scooby Doo (which the kids are OBSESSED with right now!) After lunch, we headed over to Melody's house for swimming and eating. The kids had fun swimming and it was a great way to beat the heat for the afternoon.  I was too busy visiting to take pictures, but here are some pictures from before we went over there!

Brinley and Clayton with the flag cake I made with a recipe from Pinterest....it was yummy!

 The kids all decked out in their red, white, and blue!

 After swimming, we went back to our house and the Walker's came over for the evening! We grilled hamburgers and hot dogs and the kids played really hard! We enjoyed the breezey evening in the backyard (our backyard is always 15 degrees cooler than the front in the evenings because the backyard is completely shaded by 4pm everyday!)

Eating dinner (Austin spent the entire evening wearing Clayton's batman costume..ha ha!)

Around 9pm, we loaded the kids up in the car drove around the block to watch the city fireworks.  We had the perfect view without having to leave the back of the truck!

Here is the crew: Clayton, Addison, Brinley and Austin
