Happy 4th of July!

For the 4th of July we went over to our friends Erik and Angela's house. They also had our friends Rick and Crystal over to join in the festivities. We had a total of 10 kids running around together and 2 more on the way! We barbecued, played with water balloons, had a bonfire with smores, and played with sparkers. It was a fun time!

Eli caught his first butterfly with his net! He was so proud and I was impressed with how gentle he was with the butterfly!

Asa decided to try on a little backpack. He looks super cute, I am not ready for that though!

We are sporting blue and red for the 4th of July!

Family Fun at the Children's Museum!

We had fun taking the boys to the Children's Museum this morning. They especially liked playing in the new "fix it" room.

The boys love to swing together! They ask us to push them all the time. I look forward to the day when they can learn to pump!

The other day we were at a friend's house and Eli decided he wanted to climb the small apple tree. He is a good climber!

Daddy caught Eli a firefly at one of his

photography shoot sights. Eli enjoyed watching the bug light up.

The other day we watched the movie "Toy Story 3" with Eli. He was a little scared so he sat in the kitchen instead of the family room with us. He wanted to make a quick exit if he felt it was needed. We love our new carpet in the family room and basement!
