The 4th of July Weekend.........

We started the day off right with putting out our flag. The kids are great helpers! Took a few more pictures by the front door,( our favorite spot!) They were ready for a great day!


Love this picture........ Best Friends!
We thought it would be great to get back to some tradition. So we decided to go to the Bee's Baseball/ Fireworks game! It was soooo hot, but at least we had some shade before long. My whole family was able to go except Kristy's kids who were visiting in Alabama. We sure did miss them. We ate a lot of yummy food, tried to stay hydrated, wrangled and roped Christian a few dozen times, sang 'Take me out to the ballgame,' lots of potty breaks due to the hydration, and watched a good ball game and enjoyed the awesome fireworks to top of the evening!  While riding to the hotel in our car Christian commented on the fireworks saying they were beautiful! Yes they were buddy! I love to see fireworks on the 4th.....its just not the same without them!

 Family, Friends, and Fun at the ball park! Happy 4th of July!


 Big sisters are the best!
 Trying to get a good picture of us is not easy as you can see! I wonder where my kids get it from!!





                      




 Little Miss Peyton having fun!

 After the game we rode to our hotel room and stayed the night so we wouldn't have to drive all the way home and then back up to Smithfield. We were on our way to visit Jeff and Kelly and the kids! The hotel was an experience as it always is. We had Kameron join us and we all shared one room. You sure do get to know someone fast when in a situation like that! We had a good time and some laughs!

Saturday we got to Jeff and Kelly's house! We all had a BLAST! The kids played and played till they basically just dropped....that's normal with any Cromwell gathering! We played miniature golf, went to Pink's for shaved ice, played soccer, watched many dance performances, had our hair done, had a weekend filled with Napoleon Dynamite quotes and lots of good laughs and fun. We also got to celebrate Uncle Rich and Ella's birthdays while visiting! It was a great weekend.
