Happy 4th of July! Hooray for Summer!





We had a great time for the 4th this year. Jeff worked 2 events and we attended both- the 20th annual Carmichael Parade in the morning and the Carnival/ Fireworks show at Sunrise Mall. Jeff spent a few hours at home with us in between which was nice. We did not get to visit with him at either event- he was too busy which is good! After the parade, the kids napped and then we had a little BBQ with Grandpa and Grandma Quayle as well as Granny Parkinson. The kids had fun playing in the sprinklers after dinner. Then I put the girls to bed and Granny and I took Jacob to the carnival and Fireworks show in Citrus Heights. It was perfect because you watch from the parking lot by your car. Jacob isn't a fan of the loudest booms, so he watched the finale from inside the car and was happy instead of scared. Today we swam in our NEW pool and did some fireworks in the street. Jacob really liked the "snakes" because they looked more like something out of a toilet. Silly boy.
