The 4th of July

This year we went to Denver to spend the 4th with Eric, Shonie, and kids. We had a great time. Amelia loves to get to play with her cousins there, I think mainly because they do whatever activity she chooses. We spent the day outside playing golf, sidewalk chalk, bubbles, volleyball, etc... The fireworks got rained out for the most part but we still got to see a few before we got to cold and had to head home. Amelia was so tired by the time we left she fell asleep before we even hit the interstate, which is so not like her at all.

This is my favorite pic of Amelia, Cecelia and David. Of course, David is a little hard to see with Amelia sitting right on his head.

The girls pretty much tortured David the whole day but I think he secretly liked the attention.

All the men played badmitton for what seemed like hours. Even the rain couldn't slow them down. Philip and Angelo were the self-proclaimed champions.

Eating roasted marshmallows. The rest of us had smores but Amelia chose to eat hers Top Chef style, deconstructed.

We took this picture just to make Grandma Patty nervous. Did it work?
