4th of July Weekend

This 4th of July we headed to Vail Lake with about 8 other families. Vail Lake ended up having a lot to be desired so we made our own fun! Whether it was sliding down the ginormous homemade slip and slide (with dish soap and all), swimming in the kiddie pools (adults included), off roading, or making tons and tons of water balloons there was some sort of activity for all! It was HOT! The friends were great and all the food that Dorman made was AMAZING! Thank you!!! We actually headed home on the morning of the 4th to wrap up the day with watching local fireworks in our backyard. Bill started this trend of sitting up on our patio. I don't think it is such a great idea, but the boys seem to think it's great fun. I better NEVER see them jump off of it and into the pool! Luke still is not a fan of fireworks so coincidentally enough at the last minute Bill came inside with the boys and jumped in our bed to watch a loud TV (to over power the noise from the fireworks) and I watched them by myself in the backyard (from the ground!)
