the 4th of July.....

I love the 4th of July, it's one of my most favorite holidays! Thankfully, on our trip to Disneyland, the girls were introduced officially to fireworks and they have decided that they are the coolest thing, EVER! YAY.  Like most of our past 4th of Julys for the 10 years that Matt and I have been together, we spent the day with our close friends, who have a beautiful daughter Caroline. She (and my friend Nancy's daughter Stephanie) are the girls' self-proclaimed best-friend.

Here we are getting ready for Caroline to come over and filling up our super cool new pool!

waiting eagerly to get into the water!

Happy Birthday America!

I hope you had a great 4th too!

Backyard Fun....

I try to get the girls outside at least twice a day, at least before the heat gets to be too much and we'll be housebound for little bits of time because it's way too hot to play outside. Currently, one of our most favorite toys is the t-ball set that I bought them this spring....so cute!

shhh....don't tell the girls, but I definately see a swingset in their future AND a new swimming pool if possible.

Stay Cool,
