Summer Highlight #2 - The Fourth of July



Normally I would not post about the 4rth of July this late. However, the 4rth was the last major holiday we celebrated with Jonathan as a "first". I felt it deserved a post despite the fact it has been almost four months. That's why its called a "highlight" right?

For the 4rth we went to church and then got together with friends, grilled, consumed lots of food, and had a lot of fun.

The boys with their friend Zeke. Parker really liked sitting in the chairs.

Checking out Millie the dog.

Jonathan had fun pushing Micah in his swing. Micah was very patient!

All the kids plus "the girls"
After we ate we all drove to mom and dad's house. We parked our cars, took a restroom break, and walked to the elementary school at the end of their street. We set up blankets and chairs on the black top and had an amazing view of the City of Hurst fireworks.

Thomas pushed Parker and Zeke in the wagon.

I was worried Parker would be scared of the loud noises but he seemed to really enjoy looking at the fireworks.

Jonathan hung out with Aiyah and Grandad with no complaints.
It was a fun night and great way to celebrate the 4rth.
