Happy 4th of July!


Eating popsicles on the 4th of July! Nathan was very cooperative and wore his flag shirt and red/white/blue shorts. Elizabeth told me that the yellow tank top was her 4th of July shirt. Ok. 

And yes, that is Jeremy mowing in the background. He worked last night and wanted to get the lawn mowed before work. 

Since he did work, we didn't head out to any fireworks. Elizabeth can't handle staying up late without completely falling apart. Nathan was a bit disappointed we couldn't go. Last year, Jeremy had the 4th off so he took Nathan to fireworks.  However, I let Nathan stay up late just to see what kinds of fireworks we'd see around the neighborhood. 

I don't think he was disappointed. Even though aerial fireworks are illegal in West Richland, no one appears to follow the rules. We had quite the show! We sat on the east side of the house (no houses there yet...the house next door should start going up next week). We could see north, east, and west. Huge fireworks all over! Nathan loved it. At about 9:50, he said he was tired and came in and went right to sleep even with all the noise. Elizabeth slept through it all (I kept a fan on high in her room).
