July Festivities

The Stadium of Fire - Daddy loves working for them and we won a couple tickets to go this year. The show was sold out so we weren't all able to go so Jaxon stayed and had his very own fireworks show when he slept over at grandma and grandpa's. Their neighbors did fireworks right out front for over an hour. He, Riley and grandma sat in the window seat to watch. We were a little late for the show since the traffic was horrible and we stayed a little too long at Hayden's Baptism dinner. Jaron was so worried that he was going to miss the Jets flying overhead. He was so happy when we made it in time and it was a powerful ending to our National Anthem. He would have loved for them to keep flying over the whole night. He also loved the Five Browns Star Wars rendition on the piano. Grif and Jar were awesome the whole night. Jaron now is a big fan of Carrie Underwood and can tell me every time she is on the radio. Fun night but it sure was late when we got home.

We love Fireworks with our friends the Smart's. The boys love to play with their girls. Daddy was lucky enough to come with us this year since there was not a game or Fireworks show since the 4th was on a Sunday.







Hooray for fireworks!

We couldn't let the weekend pass by without out a barbeque, water balloon fight, and sparklers. The Smart's were in on the fun and we had a great time eating the fish that daddy and Jaxon caught while they were fishing with grandpa.



The fish were mighty delicious. Wish you all could have tried them!






24th Festivities - We are lucky enough to get to celebrate twice in July. Daddy had to work the soccer game so we got preview screening tickets to a new movie right by his stadium. We thought it was a great idea to see the movie instead of going to the Parade. Well so did everyone else. We weren't able to get in so we went to the Aquarium instead and that was tons of fun. Probably more fun than the movie would have been. The boys loved seeing the live animal show and Jaxon always loves petting the sting ray. It was the perfect time to go. Not many people were there when they opened and it was a fun special outing with dad before he had to work.

We did end up getting tickets to the game so we got to see the fireworks there too. Daddy was still working and didn't get to join us but the boys did get to ride home with him. They are awesome sports fans. I love being able to take them to games by myself when daddy is working.
