Our Fun 4th of July that turned kinda... well, ghetto.

So I had every intention of having a great 4th of July celebration with our cute little family. As you can see in this picture, we were all decked out in our red white and blue garb. (Not quite sure what was up with my hair I might add...) So here we are in front of Grandma Dars House.



I just love the men in my life... here they are about to get goin' on the patriotic pinata...


Really, Cole thinks that anytime there's a pinata its a "Birthday Bash" as he calls it. Go ahead and call it whatever you want buddy...




All was well untill Bo started doin' this...


So we whipped out this. And it still didn't stop his whinning...


So Ty and he jumped in the pool and all was happy again.



We had planned on getting up on Grandma Dar's patio and watching the fireworks both from Tempe Marketplace and from the Country Club. But the boys were starving, so we ended up... here. At Wendy's. At first we were just gonna drive through. Not realizing that you could see the Country Club's fireworks perfectly from here. Here we are all ghetto, watching the fireworks. Cole still in his swimsuit, and Bo in just a diaper... BUT the view was incredible. I can't even express how awesome it was. I was a little embarrased that my kids were not even dressed, ( although we did pretty much fit in with the others that were watching from where we were...) But still felt very proud to be part of this great country.

At least I tried.
