Happy 4th of July!

Happy 4th of July!! Instead of braving the Fort Campbell festivities we went to Steph's house for a BBQ. It was nice to hang out, relax and eat good food! We brought the water slide with us and the kids had a blast. It wasn't as hot as it has been and it was really nice to be able to enjoy being outside. After dinner the kids did sparklers - although both Emmy and her friend Bella got little burns. Aidan managed to not burn himself and use all the sparklers after the girls decided that one burn was enough. We also watched the fireworks in the neighborhood and all of the kids seemed to have fun. We didn't get home until really late and we have to get up early for doctor's appointments and swim lessons tomorrow. Ugh - we'll see how it goes!Emmy and Bella with sparklers.Aoife eating dinner - for maybe the 3rd time. She loves a good cookout!Aidan and Emmy watching fireworks:
