For the July festivities, we went down to the cabin on July 3rd. We stayed at Grandma Sheila's for the night. The Johnsons came down with us and stayed the night. The boys liked playing tractors in the dirt while Liv went and hunted lizards. The nights' sleep was absolutely horrible. We got Ethan to sleep, then made the mistake of going into his room and trying to open his window. Then Landon and Carter were screaming for hours. Kelly and Christy de
cided to drive around with them to get them to fall alseep. I ended up with both kids in bed with me and Trent slept in the day bed by himself. (Lucky him). I spent the rest of the night trying to keep Ethan from falling off the bed. Landon woke up later in the night and poor Kelly had to take him outside and swing him to sleep. Then we woke up to Ethan falling off the bed. We later went down to the parade. We had a great time and the kids got a ton of candy. Ethan really liked the fire trucks and the horses. L
andon and Carter really didn't care much for the parade, but oh well. We got lucky and were somewhat under the shade of a tree. We ended the day by coming home and BBQ'ing and lighting fireworks with the friends. We had a great day!

Sounds like a blast! Isn't it crazy what we put up with to have a good time for a holiday? The memories will be worth it though. Livy looks just like you in that top picture, so cute!
The joys of kids :) And we only have one!
Your kids are both adorable. I'm sad that you aren't my Visiting Teaching companion anymore. We were the best ever. OK maybe I should say the worst ever because I was a slacker towards the end. O-well we tried. :)
