Fourth of July!

We had a really fun fourth of July! And since my camera's broken, dropped in the pool by our poor ant bitten Kailyn, I don't have any pictures of it. So I'll just tell you what we did instead. We started off with some games. We did a sack race, three legged race and dump truck races.We played the fishing game and the kids got little tokens for every game they won. Then they got to get a prize with their tokens. The kids had a ton of fun! Travis cooked a delicious brisket and we had potato salad, corn, cowboy beans, salad and bread. We did a picnic outside and tried to keep the kids up to go see fireworks. But since they didn't take naps, like we hoped/tried, they went to bed. Travis and I caught some of the ones the neighbors did behind our house. It was a perfect July 4th!

Sweet it sounds like you had a little carnival. I love the fishing game. Poor little Clover did you find any of that Max Force? You neighbors did a bang up job on the fireworks honey. How did the kids sleep through that. lol
