Fun 4th of July weekend

We had a great 4th of July weekend. We headed out to Lake Murray on Saturday for a celebration with our sister-in-law, Stephanie's family. The kids had a great time on the lake and Carter and Patrick enjoyed riding the jet ski.

Abby would not get in this little pool but had a great time hanging out by it.

Abby enjoying her little chair. Love that face.

Carter and his cousin, Ian, eating boiled peanuts. They were like little old men with a trash can in front of them to get rid of the shells.

The on Sunday, we went to a friend's house for dinner, a waterballoons and fireworks. The kids had a great time.

Carter was soaking wet, but laughing the whole time.

I had to work this morning but then came home and we took the kids out back to play in the water.

Abby just hopped in this little pool. It was too small for her, but it was only 25 cents on clearance last year. She loved it.

Abby enjoyed playing with the hose on Carter's water firetruck. They had a great time.

We hope everyone has had a wonderful weekend.
