4th of July

We had a great Fourth of July! We started off the day with a little bike ride, and as you can see, Buzz, Woody, and Slinky Dog had to come along.


Look close...Woody is peeking out.
Then Atticus got his long awaited turn.
Don't even try to look close. He was too small to even have a little head pop up in the window.
Then we went to the backyard for some pool fun.

We started off with a few toys in the pool.

Everyone went down the slide.
Max began to put balls in the pool.
Even though Atticus didn't mind, we did have to put a ball limit on Max.
Then we headed out the backyard and across the street to the park. We saw several great fireworks shows. Both the boys LOVED it! Our neighbors continued the fireworks into the night, and that was quite entertaining for Max. The next night, he asked us to, "pay pop pop". That meant to pray for more fireworks. So, we prayed, but told him they were all gone. BUT, of course, our neighbors did continue the celebration after all. About 10 that night, he came running into our room yelling, "Pop Pop!" I think he saw that as an answered prayer.
