Happy July 4th!

 Happy July 4th!!!!  I'm way behind on blogging -- but I'll at least get this post up in decent time:)  We started the day off with our Neighborhood 4th of July Parade -- always fun to get the 

bikes all dolled up!

This was Tyler's first year to ride -- and he was right ready to be in on the action! 

 Love this pic!  Bryan was the designated bike-rider . . .I was the on the sidelines picture taker!

Joshua had fun catching up with neighbor kids and kids from school he hadn't seen during the summer!

Kayla and our neighbor friend, Alec.  

 "Uncle Sam" giving us instructions . . . DO NOT GO IN FRONT OF THE FIRE TRUCK!

 And they actually obeyed!

 Tyler made it -- he was one sweaty boy, though!  His head sweats more than anyone else I know!

 And of course, the kids couldn't wait to set off some fireworks . . .

 Kayla thought it best to change into her KU skirt to keep them blue and red theme consistent:)

 Family came over . . . so much fun to have babies around.  Well they weren't totally digging the fireworks when they got cranked up, but it was fun to have them around!  Mr. Jordy is almost 4 months old!

And Mr. Westin is sitting up on his own!  Seems like just yesterday I was putting Tyler down early in his crib on 4th of July night so he could just sleep through it!

 The team working together on the sparklers . . .

Is this really our baby?????
