Fireworks!

I never finished this post from a while back, so here goes...We went to a fun festival in Hartsville for the 4th of July this year--yummy food, fun games, redneck music and fireworks to boot! SO FUN! We went with Boo and Amber and our friends', Kit and Randee Thames. We walked around for awhile and stood in line for hot dogs and snow cones!


Then we found an out-of-the-way place and put down our blankets to watch fireworks! Amber's entire family showed up as well so we added about 15 more to our group--the more the merrier!
Thames, Axelson and Harvey kids eating oreos!


Abby licking the "white stuff" (powdered sugar) off of Mommy's funnel cake plate! SHe ouldn't let ANYTHING sweet go to waste!

How Phoebe was during the entire fireworks show...(notice Abby screaming in the background--NOT a fan of big fireworks--Phoebe could not have cared less!)


...and how Myah was the entire fireworks show!

The Thames family...our buds! Mikyn and Carsen obviously just thought the fireworks were too loud!

The next night, we hung out at the Thames' house and went swimming!

Phoebe loves to sit straight on the grass!


The girls waiting in anticipation (and on the screen porch with no mosquitoes!) for the fireworks to begin...

Kiddos watching the fireworks from the porch...

We had so much fun and were glad that we got off our duffs and went and did something for a change! We are SUCH homebodies, but we're trying to branch out!!! It was so fun!

Actually...it's Josh! I meant to put a comment under that one and I forgot! They were seeing who could walk the farthest on their hands in the pool! I'm oh-so-proud to say that Josh won everytime!!!
