4th of July Fun

We had a blast for the 4th of July weekend.

Eli, Blade and Rory rode in the little kid parade.

They had a little buckaroo rodeo and Eli rode
a sheep and chased pigs for money.
I thought he would back out of riding the sheep.
He didn't! I didn't get a picture of him
riding the sheep because he didn't stay on to long!
But he had fun!

We stayed out at the lake for the weekend.
The kids had a blast playing in the water.

We all watched the fireworks from the lake. We had never watched them
from out there but it was really cool to see
the reflection on the water.

WATER, WATER, AND MORE WATER!

Eli, Blade and big kid Casey had a water fight.
Eli got so sick of getting soaked so he got out the hose! Smart kid!

Grandma brought lots of fun games for the kids to play at camp.

Eli and Blade spent all afternoon collecting
rocks from around the lake. They were very
proud to show off there rocks!

Eli showing off the cooked crawdad he caught.
He wanted to take him to daycare for show in tell.
So we stuck him in the freezer to keep
until then, but his legs started to fall off!
