fireworks!

We celebrated part of our 4th of July on the 1st. Paul got off early and we drove up to Dale and Vanessa's house to join them for dinner and fireworks and a family sleepover, since Paul had the following day off of work. The kids had a great time running around with Paul and their cousins.

Lullaby soaked up all the baby Duncan time she could. She really LOVES babies, and Duncan sure is a sweet one to love.

Dale worked the barbecue and made delicious dinner. Thanks Dale! We brought a TON of cherries and a few neighbors and their kiddies came over too. What fun!

Lulli went to sleep late, but far before the fireworks started. She slept through everything, which was impressive since we shot them off in their cul de sac! This was the first time Matix or Hawken were awake for them, and it was so fun to watch their expressions. What sweet little boys I have.  Dale and Vanessa bought a billion fireworks, big and little and everyone had a good time.

I was so happy to have Paul there too. We always miss him when he can't join in the fun with us, so it was really nice to be able to do this together.  Happy 1st of July!!
