4th of July Weekend

We had a really good 4th of July weekend. We went down to my cousins house on Samish Island on the 3rd and camped out for 2 nights. We really had a lot of fun, food and family!



Here are 3 generations of girls - E, My sister and I and our Great (the kids Great Great) Aunt.

My Aunt decided it was time for a little dip in the water. Who knew she would go up to her waist!



E relaxing in the swing! She was trying to push herself to make the swing go.


The water finally calmed down and all the boys decided to go for a row.


T was showing his great grandpa something out in the water. These two are like best buddies!


The family sitting around waiting for the parade to start so that when it was over we could finally eat. We were getting hungry!


Here are the kids, in their 4th of July outfits, waiting patiently for the parade to get to us. It took like 45 minutes.


E did sparklers by herself for the first time. She kept doing them and doing them. The older kids were on the beach letting off big fireworks. I told them to leave the sparklers for her.




What a way to end the wonderful holiday with excellent weather, good food and loving family (except for fireworks of course) than by a beautiful sunset. Hope you all a had as wonderful a day as our family did!
