Our WILD & FUN 4th of July!!!

We had a busy and fun 4th of July! We started the day with Nana, Boppy, Ryan & Hayley at the Ontario City Parade. It wasn’t very entertaining and I was hotter than anything, but as you can tell from Ella's next picture (BELOW) she had a blast. She danced in the street & saw Elmo & Cookie Monster (highlight of the parade for her). We also told her she had firecrackers in her hair...and she thought that was pretty cool.We then went to Nana & Boppy's for an all day swim party and BBQ. The kids have a blast when all of their cousins are over and swimming. Later that evening everyone came over to our apartment and we walked to the park to do a few cheesy carnival games and then back to our place, where we have a more than perfect view of the fireworks, with wide open space for the kids to run around and play.

  1. Actually, Wes and I are buddy band buddies ;)... but I'll settle for glow stick buddies. I personally liked the pictures of Ella and Carter with monster eyes (using the glow sticks as long eye balls), and love little winky.
