We celebrated the 4th the way we have for a few years now, spending great time with family that came for a visit. My aunt and uncle have been coming to VA for years now over the 4th of July weekend. They always helped mom and dad volunteer at the Heritage Festival Run in Fredericksburg, and then we all got together for a cookout and fireworks. Well, the run was on the 3rd this year so that was a no go for them since they were traveling but dad enjoyed himself! The fireworks fizzled for us since the closest were at KD, and I'm not really sure how that works from the parking lot + three little sleepy kiddos. Maybe we will be brave enough to give it a shot next year?
As you can see, we had a great time catching up, playing in the sprinklers, riding tricycles, playing ball, and eating some yummy food! John, Karen, and Justin joined the rest of us for the fstivities. We alway have a great time when we all get together even though it is only a couple of times a year :) Lucas has so much fun with everyone, and I'm pretty sure the girls loved the attention too ;) We just needed a longer holiday to keep celebrating!
