4th of July festivities


This picture pretty well sums up the fabulously fun weekend we had. As my sister said, its the "Quintessential summertime for a preschooler!!"

Trying to hold on in the fierce wind in Evanston, WY. Waiting for dad to check out from the firework store.
Shopping for Fireworks in Wyoming is always an adventure! Off to Evanston to load up! This year we went all out. Shawn had missed the festivities last year and this year he was determined to make up for it. Between Kevin, Shawn and his dad, we ended up with two shopping carts full, $347 worth of fireworks and three free Black Cat hats to top it off! Stepping out into the Wyoming wind with the shopping carts was an adventure all on its own too!

Here is the pyro clan: happy as can be with lots of fire power!
Shawn, dad, and Kevin

A few cousins in the family tree!! Kierra, Alexus, Kaylee, Austin, Chloe and Jadeyn
Jadeyn loved spending time with his cousins. When I went off with the men for some target practice, we left Jadeyn home with cousins. I guess the girls really outnumbered the boys because we came home to find him with beautifully painted pink toenails!

Jadeyn and Austin out for some summer fun in the Radio Flyer! They got a kick out of how many rocks they could pick up along the way by hanging over the side!


Our little buy takes after his dad: he likes to blow stuff up already! Here he is stacking 4 of his tanks with a small pile of fire crackers underneath!

Ahhh...every boy needs a dog. (nope, she's not ours, but we like to borrow her whenever we visit Grandma and Grandpa in WY.


Finally one last cute video. Entertained for hours with a hose, a bucket, and an ever patient and thirsty dog. Jadeyn was in heaven!
