Baby Your a Firework!

   Every fourth of July we are usually at the beach and enjoy the fireworks there.  This is the first time in the seventeen years that I have lived in Amherst that we enjoyed them at home.  Literally, walking distance down the street.  They had a zip line, tethered hot air balloon rides, train rides, face painting and lots of food to eat.  The band also played.  The three older kids enjoyed the zip line, while Ryland eagerly awaited the train ride.
   I thought the fire works were great and the kids had the best time.  Making new traditions for my little family!
    On the fourth we went to a friends pool party, who by the way have the most amazing pool!  Since it felt about 120 degrees that day,

it was perfect.  The kids spent about seven hours straight in the water. I made these little cuties for the party and they were a hit!
