Our fourth started out with breakfast at Central Market with our friends the Jones' and later that afternoon we went to the Cedar Park festivities at a park near our house. We saw some firemen who were handing out these neat hats and stickers. We played on a lot of inflatable toys,

Tyson (mind you he is 3 years old) had no fear and climbed this giant climbing wall, he is in the red shirt.

Played some fun games, including a little horseshoe game for prizes, and this how strong are you game.


We had some local BBQ and went to play on the playscape for a little bit.

James and the kids playing in the little rocks, and James was able to get Gwen to conquer her fear of slides.

Where are Harrison's feet?

Oh here they are.

Fireworks anyone? After the park we went back to our place for some fireworks, and running around. Harrison is ready for some Frisbee too.

This is the perfect picture to show how all the kids were when the fireworks went off, you can see Avery in the background she was also surprised.


I love Harrison's face in this one. Hmmmmm.

Playing with the tanks.

And my favorite the sparklers. One for each hand.

All the kids were running around and being crazy.

Gwen took a moment to sit down and think, but just a moment was all she could spare.

James and Ryan started to play some Frisbee and they had their very own cheering section.

Then it was time to ride bikes, and after all of that we had some really really really tired kids.

And we called it a day. It was a great day for family, friends, food, and fireworks. What could be better?

That sure tops our fourth! I looks like a wonderful day.
Looks like you had such a great time! James looks so different without his beard. I am so glad to see your celebrations! Wish we could have all been together!
Wow, next year we are getting started earlier! I had no idea all that was going on at the park. It looks like it was fabulous and thanks for inviting us for the fireworks. I am sorry Harrison's new frisbee is now at the bottom of the storm drain...it was fun while it lasted. I love how enthralled the kids were with fireworks, I had a blast watching them. And we left just in time with the two little girls who can't live without a bike. That could have gotten dangerous...maybe next year they'll all be big enough to ride bikes and not fight over them. :)
It was so great to spend the day with you guys. It was so great to see Gwen's face while watching the fireworks. And I'm so glad she overcame her fear of slides. And Harrison was a charmer as always.
Looks like you had a fun weekend!
Fun! I thought about inviting you and Paige and families over, but assumed you'd have plans. We just had our family and Mindi (Lindsey's friend) at home. I want to have you all over soon to enjoy the pool and cook on the grill or what ever.
Congratulations on your new calling in the Young Women's organization! I'm sure the girls will love you. We'll miss you in RS, but I know you'll be around still.
My thoughts on your blog:
the 3 yr old is a total dare-devil, look at him go.
It looks super muggy there
Is James still on his diet, because he is looking very thin, maybe it's the absence of a beard, not sure...
Harrison looks just like his dad
We must have just missed you at the Cedar Park thing. We went later when it wasn't quite as hot.
