4th of July

The kids had an awesome 4th! It was spent with Grandma Joan and all the fam! We swam, ate, watched fireworks and relaxed. I was definitely thankful that it landed on a Friday this year. Every other year it was during the week which meant work the next day! We took full advantage of that. Michael and Kirk decided that not only will we watch fire works, but they will put on their own show as well. Beer, sun, swimming and old fire works from Mexico don't mix! The kids cousins and aunts and I all sat on a huge bail of hay to not only protect ourselves from the display Michael and Kirk put on, but to see all the fire works around us too. Michael and Kirk are too funny together! After they had their fill of the fire works, they decided to let off all the remaining ones in a box at the same time. They lit and ran! haha. They are a bunch of goons, but hey, it kept us entertained! As for Darren, there is no such thing as fear. He loves to jump off the spa and into the pool. Of course Michael and Kirk took advantage of throwing all the kids in the pool too.

Jaycee enjoyed home made chocolate chip cookies that grandma made and even held out on swimming so she could finish. She left the evidence all over her face.

With most of the Stewart kids nearby, I decided to get a picture of them playing by the pool. I couldn't help but notice they were all little blondies!
