4th of July

We watched fireworks over the Mississippi (well, right next to it-on a part of a river that used to be the Mississippi River). The city was crowded and we got their late but somehow got the BEST seats right on the boat launch.

These were taken while we waited or just after the fireworks.





These are mostly on the way home from church or to church or something. Noe and Sawyer were so cute. Sawyer (just turning 3) was moving up to the 3-4 year olds class at church so it was new for him as well as for Noe. They walked in a little tentatively but excited, holding hands. It was such a cute moment (and I did not take a picture).








I think I took about 700 pictures and these were the only ones that weren't riddled with funny faces, closed eyes and opened mouths.

Finally, It was time to go home. It is always amazing to me that the more tired a child gets the more energy they seem to have and more fight they have behind that energy.
