4th of July!

Yes- I'm a little bit behind..it's all good eh?!  Anyways...this year for the 4th of July, we had a fabulous time!  The day was pretty low-key, but we had a great night!  We were able to go to the Colorado Rapids soccer game and we had so much fun. The kids were really really hungry, so we stopped out by the soccer field at Popeyes chicken (I think?) and picked up some chicken for a little picnic in the car.  The kids thought it was so cool to have a picnic in the car.  Lincoln was a little bit sad because he was the only one that opted out of a nap for the day, but all the kids- for the most part- were absolutely wonderful all night!  We tried to get there a little bit earlier than we actually did to do some fun stuff that they had there, but we were able to make it just in time.  Instead of going in to the game though, we opted to go over and have some fun at the activities.  The kids thought it was so much fun.  We went to the bouncy houses, played on the stilts, and tried to maybe stand in line for some of the other ones, but got there a bit too late.  So, we headed into the park and watched the game!  It was fun to be there with the kids- the boys were having so much fun actually knowing a little bit of what was going on on the field.  They are lovin' soccer right now.  We even got to have some snacks there at the game!  Such a nice Dad for getting them some.  But for sure, the best part of the whole night were the spectacular fireworks!  One of the reasons that we decided to go to the soccer game was because they were one of the ONLY places in the state that was still doing fireworks because of all the horrific fires that have been going on here in Colorado this year!  So, it was great to be able to see some fireworks and BOY did they deliver!  They were like 30 minutes long!  Every song that finished I was thinking that it was going to end, but it never did!  They did play a couple of songs that I didn't even know!  Apparently, I'm out of touch. :)  It was so amazing though, and I am so proud to be a part of this wonderful country!  YEAH FOR AMERICA!!!

So fun to picnic in the car!

Wont' eat anything...any help anyone could give me would be GREAT!

Cole giving it a shot- it's hard!  I was very impressed that he could stand up on his own!

i could not.  I needed the boys help for sure!  Stockton looks terrified.

Morgan thought the bouncy house was the bomb

Fam shot!

Love the barf comin out of my little baldies mouth.  He is totally like Mr. Clean- so bald!

Little bit of a meltdown

Not this one- this time. 

So Wave your Flag!

It was a LONG wait to get out of the parking lot- so this is what we do.  Take silly pictures!
