Our 4th of July in Pictures

Here is a quick photo journal of our 4th of July activities.

Bright and early we went to the Murray Parade. Here is Ian with his candy sack--we have enough taffy to last us until Christmas.

Miles--happy to be waving that flag, so patriotic. (oh, and check out the cute scrunched up nose--it's his signature "I'm so cute take a picture of me" face.

Waiting for the parade to start with the Mair clan.

After a much needed afternoon nap we all headed up to Grandma and Grandpa Noel's for a BBQ and to see the fireworks. Here is Miles showing me the only thing he ate--a dill pickle.

After the BBQ we headed over to the park for a concert and fireworks. Of course we had to hit the playground first. Here is Ian showing his skinny belly and his strong muscles.

Here is Miles on the digger--once again scrunching up that nose!

Here is Ian jammin' out to some of the tunes before the fireworks.

Miles happy as ever--that is until the fireworks started. He cried and was so scared he just fell asleep! Poor little guy he sure hates loud noises.

Thanks to Grandma we had bubbles to keep the kids busy before it got dark.
What a great day, and a great way to celebrate the fabulous country we live in. Happy Independence Day!

Yay for the update!
Okay, first off, your boys are so cute. Seriously, I love Miles' scrunched up nose smile and Ian just has the biggest smile ever. Yay for your cute boys.
It looks like you guys had a tone of fun on the 4th. Poor Miles! At lest he fell asleep and didn't scream the entire time. What a silly boy.
We are all excited to see you this weekend. The girls keep asking "Are Ian and Miles coming? They are our favorite cousins. Ian is crazy." That is what they say. Funny huh?
Anyway, glad you had a good weekend, and we will see you soon.
Oh, and I bought the baby a present. It is super cute!
