our fourth with family and friends

After days of rain, it finally stopped and we were able to enjoy 4th of July outside.  We headed to the pool with my parents in the morning.  Emmy looked so cute in her new bathing suit!
 
 
Bryce couldn't wait to show Jason how much he improved in the water while he was gone.  He even got dive sticks off the bottom of the pool.

 
Bryce and Emmy have become friends with little Ella at the pool.

 
More patriotic attire.

 
After hamburgers at my parents' house, we went over to Bryce's friend Thomas' house to do some fireworks.

 
 
It's hard work getting those party poppers to pop!

 
Apparently I got brave and let Emmy do a sparkler.  She didn't get hurt, but probably not one of my better ideas!

 
Bryce wore his headphones all night.  Even for sparklers!

 
Jason did some fancy camera work for this shot.

 
We had a wonderful day celebrating the holiday with family and friends!
