Independence

{july 4th weekend}

the boys LOVED pop its.
 they could have thrown them all night long.

and yes, cowboy boots work GREAT for stomping through the dirt
and on pop its.

ryan HATES fireworks.

we thought that he would like them now that he is a bit older. 

wrong.

he still doesn't like them.

(last fall we took him to a ASU football game that had some fireworks.

he got so scared every time they fired one off,

almost like he was being shot.)

he did however LOVE his glow in the dark sword from Emily.

(thanks for the sword it saved the night!)

i also love dressing the boys up for holidays,
if you can't tell!

don't they look thrilled! ha

 amy took these pictures.
she may be fabulous with kids...
but with a camera not so much:).

ryder's face kills me. 

thanks boys.
love you!
