4th of July!

Sorry, so late in posting this but I figured better late than never! :-)

On the 4th we celebrated very quietly. Ben had to work that day so Kyle and I did our usual Sunday errands and made cupcakes (a post on that in a little bit!). Then when Ben got home, we got out in the back yard and let Kyle play in his whale pool (a post on that also coming in a little bit) and Ben grilled Hamburgers and hot dogs. Doesn't Kyle look so cute helping his Daddy with the burgers! Actually this is as close to the grill as he got but he felt important by holding the spatuala!! :-)


Then Ben and Kyle played baseball.... Kyle got pretty good at swinging and hitting the ball.


After supper and bathtime, we decided to light a few sparklers before it got dark. Yes I know it would have been better at night but Kyle doesn't really like the dark or the loud noises of other fireworks so this was a perfect time for us.


He loved playing with the sparklers!! He waved them around and we played with 3 boxes of them! I did keep a box or two inside so maybe we can play with them again outside one evening soon.
