Happy 4th of July!!!






We love the 4th of July! It's a fun day of just relaxing and having fun. Every year, we go down to the pier, on the south side of the clock tower and camp out all day. This year it was totally up in the air though because, now we have two kids, and we didn't know how they would do at the beach all day long till the fireworks and everything. So we only decided the night before to go for it and it was great as always! We got down a little later than usual at about 8am and we managed to still get a pretty good spot right where we always set up. We decided not to make it too much work this year as far as all the food and so we just packed up one igloo with fruit, sandwiches, and drinks and for dinner all of us just ordered a pizza from cassanos right before the fireworks it was so easy and fun! Oh, and Ethan had his first piece of pizza, he loved it! Anyhow, the boys were troopers all day, they even took a 2 hour nap at the same time! We were so happy we ended up doing what we do every year for the fourth an decided to keep it as a tradition every year. (Last year I was pregnant and chasing after James all day, so I was especially happy not to be pregnant this year and totally able to have my energy back) We got home at 12 midnight because it was bumper to bumper on pch of course. We had a wonderful day overall and we hope you all did too!

How fun! What troopers you have. Kirk and I were riding our bikes all along the beach that day, we must've gone right by you! Glad you had fun. Oh, and I worked with Nicole last night at Beachfire, we were saying that it is time for another girls' night, maybe next week sometime- stayed tuned:)
