Vacation Part 4 - Hanging out and Fireworks!

The kids loved playing outside while we were there and I don't know if I have mentioned it yet, but the weather was gorgeous! We had low's in the 50's and high's in the upper 70's - we actually wore jeans and jackets in July - how awesome is that? We totally lucked out, though, because I believe it was the week after we came home that they had record breaking high's in the 100's (and Katie thought she was leaving the heat....snicker, snicker)
I just love the picture above. Aaron and I caught the kids and took this picture through the window. You can't see it, but Nathan has a tree branch in his hand and they were trying to pull it down (I guess). Anyway, they were all lined up pulling as hard as they could. I just noticed, too, that Jenna's feet aren't even on the floor - so cute!
On Saturday the 4th we went to the town fair. The kids played games. We all participated in a "cake plus" walk. Between the eight of us we won a cake, a watermelon and a cantaloupe. Not bad considering there were probably around 100 people participating. Later that evening we watched the fireworks at the park. Their show was really good. I'd have to say it was even better than our local fireworks here.
We had such a fun trip. Thanks so much Smith family for having us up to visit! We love you guys and miss you lots!

Love all the pics. Espeically the one of Dani and her sunglasses. She really is the cutest thing I've ever seen! ;)

Can't wait to plan our next vacation together!
