2015 Independence Day

We celebrated Independence Day together. In the morning we went to a parade with my brother and his family. Look at our patriotic clothing colors. :)

 Two nieces and a nephew were in the parade. Here are Matthias and Anna.

 And Emmy,

 Sometime during the day Allison decided a snow boot was necessary for her outfit. And backward. She was right. Look how it improved her statement.

 We watched the Caldwell fireworks from our neighborhood. They lit them at a park very close to the house, so we could see the fireworks without having to contend with traffic. :)

 Nana and Papa came over to watch the fireworks with us.

God and Country Rally 2015

We went to the God and Country Rally in 2015. The kiddos had fun playing in the fire hose. 

 We waited for forever for the fireworks, but we eventually got to see them.
