Happy Fourth!

We hope everyone had a great day today. The weather here in NJ couldn't have been anymore perfect. I hope that's a sign of what's to come for the rest of the summer and the rain chills out a little!

We started our day outside in the front yard playing in the grass and playing in the cars (the kids', not ours;)
I was thrilled that Camryn FINALLY kept pigtails in long enough for me to get her picture with them in. They never last more than a minute but this time it was at least 15. Yahoo! It's the little things..ha ha!

After nap we headed over to our friends' house for a BBQ. The kids did a bunch of running around and each had a cupcake in an ice cream cone (My personal favorite so I had one, too of course!)
We got home early enough to play in the backyard for a little while before it was time for at (much needed) bath and bedtime.

To think last year we took this:

Now I can't even get them to stay still for a picture for a second!
Our day was long, but a ton of fun..we hope everyone else had a great day, too!
