Max's 4th Birthday

Max had a very successful 4th birthday. We invited the neighbor kids and some kids from Max's sunbeam class. They had a great time playing in our little pool and sprinker but had even more fun playing in the sand box. Max requested a snake cake for his birthday so if you are wondering what his cake is supposed to be, now you know. He loved all of his presents, especially his fire truck tent, tractor tricycle, and tee ball set. Max is such a great kid. We can't believe how fast he is growing.

Jeremy and the Boys

I just thought this was a cute picture of Jeremy and our boys. It looks like I had them pose or something. They just love Jeremy and as soon as he arrives he gets a good work out, preforming all types of requests. From the bull to the steamroller, he stays pretty busy and usually ends up falling asleep on the floor due to exhaustion.

4th of July Activities

The Fourth of July was filled with all kinds of fun activities. The day started with a early morning drive to see the hot air balloons. We got there just in time to see them leave the ground. The boys talked about seeing them all day. It was a big hit.

We later met up with Neal's sisters up American Fork Canyon and had a little barbeque. The boys loved the stream nearby and before we even got a chance to eat they were soaked.
The day ended with a fireworks show in Provo. This is the first year I finally gave in to Neal and let the boys stay out late to watch them. I think the show was a little loud because all the twins would do was hide their faces and all they would say was "loud". Max just laid and watched them with his hands over his ears. (I know this is not the best picture of me. I was looking pretty weary by the end of the day.)

The 4th was a busy and very long day (starting at 6:00 a.m. and going until midnight) but I think it will be a memorable day.
