july 24th

we loaded everybody in the car, and headed off to the big 24th of july celebration at the park. it was really a good time, especially for the kids.

van was excited to bring his new scooter that dad got him at the thrift store 

mia was all excited about the balloons...

we filled up on popcorn, slushies, and cotton candy

and of course we had fun chasing around little miss busy body,

and all her cuteness:)

the boys also brought along the remote control off road car and airplane to fly in the wide open field. good times.
