Fourth of July Weekend

Ian had a great "first 4th of July" celebration!  We were so busy, but got to see lots of friends and family.  We started the weekend off in Enid at my mom's house.  She got Ian a cute new pool floaty, and he really seemed to like it!

We hit up a few garage sales on Saturday morning and scored this awesome ball pit for $5...gotta love good deals!

On Saturday night, we headed over to my Aunt and Uncle's house for swimming and a cookout.  It started raining after we had been in the pool for about 30 minutes, but I think Ian was "done" by that time! ha!

This is a pic of my cousin's little girl...Ian's 3rd cousin!  She is so much fun!

This is my other cousin's wife, Ashley, and their little boy.  He was born in January, so he's almost 6 months old.  He is just precious!

Haley enjoyed showing the boys "how it's done!"

Love this pic!

Daddy and Ian

We headed back to Wichita on Sunday because Jason had to work, so we spent the actual 4th of July in Wichita.  Here's my baby in the morning...getting ready for breakfast!

My friend, Erin, came over with her little boy.  The boys went "swimming" and played both IN and OUT of the splash park!

The boys getting ready to watch the fireworks "show" (it consisted of smoke bombs, sparklers, fountains, and a few noisy surprises (accidently...Ian didn't like those at all!)  Also, the "show" occurred around 7pm, so it was still pretty light out! ha!

Erin's husband, Kevin, lit a lot of the fireworks for us :)
 Okay, momma!  We're ready to go inside....it's HOT out here!!
 

What's the best thing about a holiday weekend ending?  A short work week!

I love the boy's matching "lawn" chairs! Quite the duo!
