Fourth of July

We had a great time on the Fourth of July at Jeff and Kolene's house. Unfortunately, I forgot my camera. We spent the day in the lake swimming, boating and watching great fireworks that evening.

I wasn't sure how either of the girls would do as AnLi did NOT like the fireworks last year and I assumed it was Carli's first fireworks experience. They both cuddled in blankets, and Hillary and I each covered the girls' ears, while they would peer out from under their blankets every now and then. :) After AnLi got used to them, then she didn't mind them so much and thought they were pretty.

AnLi kept her swimming buddy Hilary busy, as they were jumping off the dock and swimming around the boat back to what should be the beach area. We've had so much rain this year that the beach is actually under water, which makes a perfect spot to keep the girls contained. AnLi never wanted to give Hilary a break!

We went back out on Saturday and I took my camera this time. The girls LOVE being in the water! Thanks for having us, Ko & Jeff! Ko got these cute inflatables. Most of the day the crocodile was chasing the fish or vise versa. They loved them!

The girls look like they really had lots of fun playing in the water!!!

Your story of the girls peeking out from under the blankets while you covered their ears-is exactly how I envision the first time we take our little ones to see fireworks! EXACTLY!! LOL!
