Happy 4th of July!

We had a fun 4th of July!  We started on the 3rd by watching fireworks on top of Grammy's apartment building.

 Grace had fun running around in her 4th of July headband before we put her to bed!

Griffin was really excited to be able to stay up late to watch the fireworks with us.  While we were waiting, he asked at least 100 questions about fire works! 

Some pictures of our wait for the fireworks: 

It was a windy night and he loved his pinwheel!

We started the 4th by decorating bikes for our neighborhood's parade.

For the second year in a row, we bailed before the parade even started due to the heat ...

 but still got a popsicle, which is Griffin's favorite part!

That afternoon we had friends over for a BBQ, complete with the bouncy house:

 It's impossible to get pictures of the kids in it, but they LOVE it!

Grace looked pretty cute in her fireman hat!

Griffin & Hudson had such a fun 4th together!
