Happy 4th of July!

Goggle boy. I love Spencer's goggles because I can always find him in the pool.

The cell phone doesn't take great pictures
but here's Rachel and Lauren taking a break from the pool.

Rachel and Lyndsay chill out on the tube

There's our little Coco

Caitlin, Gina, Courtney and Kelly. Rachel's friends love our girls!

We began our Independence Day with a neighborhood tractor/bike parade. The kids had a great time decorating their bikes and they all enjoyed riding around the neighborhood waving to the spectators. Afterwards, we headed to the ward barbecue. Finally, we joined our neighbors at our pool party. The kids enjoyed the biggest splash contest, the t-shirt relay, the dollar dive, the soda can dive, the baloon toss and hanging around their friends. We capped off the night with a drive to watch the fireworks. Unfortunately, we were late leaving and had to watch them from the car but they were still spectacular!

Kelly, Rachel, Lauren, Gina, Lauren (Rachel's friends) enjoy some yummy snacks after the parade. Notice how tall Rachel is compared to all the girls (and the shortest girl is the oldest!)

Spencer takes a breather after an uphill ride around the neighborhood.

There goes Rachel next to her friends Lauren and Gina. Spencer is behind her in the red shirt.

The kids are ready to join the parade at the end of our circle.

I have a thing for American flags and matching shirts on the 4th of July. Don't the kids look cute?
