4th of July Celebration at Don and Judy's

Our good friends Don and Judy have such a fun backyard for all the kids to enjoy! They were kind enough to invite and host our 4th of July celebration this year!
 The kids had a blast in the "chocolate milk" swimming pool! 
Matthew launching off the slide. 
 Katie, Emily, Matthew and Bex meeting new friends and hanging out in the pool! Bex preferred staying around the edge. 
 Matthew on the giant swing
Emily on the giant swing 
 Jacob not really wanting to ride the great dane
 Judy prepared a scavenger hunt for her grandkids and our kiddos all throughout the backyard! It took the kids so long to complete that by the end everyone was pretty much exhausted and ready to relax!
 Enjoying fried chicken, burgers, hot dogs and more for dinner!
 Matthew swinging with Jacob
 Of course Judy had to spoil the kids! Here's the cotton candy lineup!
 Rebecca loved her treat!
 This is just a cool picture of Matthew launching from the top step of the ladder
Katie petting the chinchilla - not too sure about that little creature! 
Jacob found a ride he did enjoy!  
After saying goodbye to our friends, we headed over to the fireworks show in Magnolia.
Emily and Bex looking very patriotic! 
 Our family found a spot on the hill to watch, but little did we know how infested this area was with ants! We had to fight those nasty ants off all night long!
 Sam opening Cheeze Puffs for Jacob to dig in!
Rebecca covering her ears from the loud sounds of the fireworks! 
Happy 4th of July everyone! 
We hope you were able to celebrate and take time to reflect on what your freedom means to you.
