Fun on the 4th

Our family had a great 4th of July.

Caleb, Emma and Camden

(This was the best picture I got of all three kids. Emma always tries to crawl to the camera, so I had the boys hold her back)

Our morning was spent just hanging around the house.  In the afternoon we went to a cookout at my cousin’s house.  Caleb and Camden spent most of our time their on the trampoline.  Camden liked it the most when no one else was on it, but they both had fun.  There was also the annual food fight with jello (which we did not participate in) and a dunk tank.

Emma hanging out at the cookout

When we got home, we made homemade ice cream and did some fireworks (the grocery store kind).  The boys have fun doing the pop-its.  Caleb and daddy spent quite a bit of time outside with this activity.  After the ice cream and fireworks, we down to the park to grab a good spot to watch our town fireworks.  We always go a little early, so that the kids can run around.

Once the fireworks started, Camden was planted in my lap crying that he wanted to go home.  Caleb and Emma enjoyed them more than Camden.  Emma clapped whenever the sky was lit up and Caleb had the biggest smile on his face the entire time watching them.

All in all a good day.
