Independence Day

Since last year was so crazy (Kyle had only been home for about a month from the hospital after his fundoplication surgery and Chris was dealing with kidney stones - again), we didn't really celebrate the 4th of July like we normally do. So this was Kyle's first celebrated 4th of July and Audrey's first 4th of July.

I dug out the outfit Hannah wore for her very first 4th of July and Audrey fit into it perfectly. Here's some pictures of Hannah back on her first 4th of July...

















Our good friend Jay joined us to celebrate at Chris' parents' house and while the adults played a game called Tailgater (similar to horseshoes but with beanbags), Hannah played in the kiddie pool and Kyle splashed from outside the pool.
















When it got dark, the neighbors (Suzanne, Shawn and their their two girls, Jacqueline and baby Sadie) came over and Hannah and Jacqueline got to play with sparklers. It was Hannah's first time getting to play with sparklers.















Kyle and Audrey seemed to enjoy the fireworks enough but both of them fell asleep while the fireworks were still going!
