4th of July 2012

I always look forward to the 4th of July.. We always spend the day w/ friends, lots of yummy food, a parade, splashing around outside, and watching fireworks.  It’s typically pretty warm on this day, but this year it was HOT.  It was a walk outside, and instantly bead up w/ sweat kinda hot.  Regardless, sweat & all, everyone had a great time.  I couldn’t help but flash back to last year, and see how much the kids have grown.  I had three, energetic kiddos on the go this year.. Last year Rowen was happily playing on a picnic blanket.  🙂
Doesn’t my mama look fantastic??  106lb weight loss!!

Then we headed home just before dusk, and did some sparklers in our backyard…
