Our 4th of July

First we got a new (much needed) stove!

our old stove...'nough said.

use those muscles man!

Alex hard at work...

Alex and Ryan taking a quick break from installing the stove to get some major fort action out of the box!

The transformation of that side ofm y kitchen...next comes the fridge...I'll keep you posted!!


Then we had our own little celebration complete with family fun and a mini fireworks display!

Alex loves pop-ices!

We opted not to try and drag our toddler and baby out to the fireworks display in town and had our own little show instead.

Alex (of whom I expected to be excited) did not like the fireworks. He ran to Daddy and cried and clapped when they were done!

Sammy (of whom I expected tears) did not even flinch!

this post was too funny!! we had a stove like that when we first moved in to our current house-boy was i glad to see that go! also, our fireworks incident was very similar this year-dalton did NOT like them, and owen didn't flinch either. that's how we found out about his hearing issues. that's not to say that sam has them, too, of course!
