4th of July

Our fourth this year was relaxing as usual. We just had all the family here, a couple close friends, and thats it.

Mom, Josh, and Larissa in the kitchen finishing making the chocolate fudge cake The girls took over the living room for a change Dad and Larissa playing on the computer Mom sleeping on the couch Josh sleeping on the chair. Now doesn't this look simular to another picture minus the monkey???

The boys loved their virgin daqueries

Dad and Larissa again

Our fireworks

Making dinner

The beer

The rum... we had a lot of fun!

but seriously...I think we're turninig into alcholics, or at least fun drunks, lol.

I don't know how this happened but Josh and Dennis were in charge of the fireworks

Watching the fireworks

I think they wanted to be outside with us

Here is a video of what Dennis and Josh thought was a good idea. They tied together I think 6 fireworks. Smart boys!

Moving out front for our finale
