The Fourth of July

Since the Fourth of July was on Sunday this year we had four days of celebrating. Friday we went to Tyler and Amanda's house for a BBQ and fire works. As always there was lots of great food. That what happens when you have a chef in the family. And my brownies were a huge hit at 11:30 after the fire work display and everyone was ready to munch on something again. Bobby loved the pops but he wanted a big bang so he dumped half his box out and jumped on it. Of course then he had hardly any pops left to throw so the next box he was a little slower going through.
Then on Saturday we went and watched the big fireworks display with our friends. That was fun it is always a good show. On Sunday the actual 4th we went to church and then over to our neighbors house for dinner.



The two handsomest boys in the world.

On Monday, July 5th, since everyone had the day off from work we went ice blocking in the afternoon and out to my parents house for dutch oven chicken. Yum! Ice blocking was a blast. The kids had never even heard of it before so they thought sledding in the summer was awesome and at least as fun as sliding down the hills in the winter. The kids picked it up quite quickly and were soon zipping down the hill without falling off. Bobby had the most fun riding on Mac's back down the hill. Mac put Bobby on his back and our friend put his 3 year old son on his back and they raced down the hill. It was photo finish at the bottom of the hill! We all had a great time.
