Our Lil' Sparkler....

This 4 of July was a little layed back, since we did so much the weekend before, but it was still nice and relaxing! On Friday during the day we just played around and rested. The boys had their little friends Josh and Emma over to swim. Carson filled up the pool and then added about 4 big cooler size of hot water, so the kids thought the water was pretty nice feeling.

Then my 3 boys headed out to George Creek to do a little fishing (which we forgot to send the camera). Even though they got out there around 8:30 at night I guess Marcus was pretty persistent that they do a little fishing that night! After which they slept in the back of the Callister Imports van (we really rough it!). They got up early the next morning did some fishing, but ended sooner then Carson would have liked when Alec fell and cut his hand and his face hit some stingy needle! They caught quite a few fish, but through must back in. They kept two to eat at camp and two to bring home. So they headed off to camp and played around with their cousins on the Allen side. They all enjoyed themselves, but were pretty tired!

While the boys were away we went for a bike ride to visit my parents and some neighbors. We slept very well in our nice soft bed!!! On Saturday we went to Logan with my parents to go see my brother Ryan's new apartment and go to lunch. His new place is quite nice with such a fun backyard, the Logan River and a rope hanging in the trees! I told him my boys are going to think this is so fun to come hang out with Uncle Ry! We had lunch at Olive Garden, it was great food and we even managed to get in some good laughs! Oh how I fear when my children get older when they have crazy parents (well crazy when we were younger) that they do! If I were to guess I would say that Uncle Ry likes Olivia, she got him to sing Itsy Bitsy Spider with her at Olive Garden. It is quite funny how a cute little girl can make you do anything with not a lot of embarrassment! Afterwards we did a little shopping, as long as a Olivia could squeak her way through the story with her shoes and see Papa she did great!

Later that night when we got home and it got dark we had our friends that live behind us the Payne's come over and we lite our fireworks. The kids thought it was great, even Olivia (well if she was being held). All in all it was a great holiday! Our Lil' Firecraker!
