Fireworks!

We didn't have a very productive 4th this year. We went to our neighbors house for a pancake breakfast, which was fun, but afterwards I had a tummy ache the rest of the day.:( We usually go to Midway to watch the big fireworks from Ryan's parents front porch, but because I wasnt feeling well, we decided to stay home and do fireworks in the culdesac. It was fun though..the kids had a grand ol' time throwing the "flowers" after Ryan would light them (freaked me out a bit.) They also enjoyed writing their names in the air with the sparklers.







My sweet brother Phillip came to visit us last month and we thouroughly enjoyed his company. He stayed for a few days and when he went to fly home, his flight got cancelled. It was bad news, but secretly, we were all happy because that meant that we got one more day to spend with Uncle Phil. We love you Man!
