Happy 4th of July




 We had a really good 4th of July this year! It's been a tradition on my dad's side since so many of the kids all have birthday's on or near the 4th, there is a major birthday bash!  Since we didn't get to celebrate Elijah's birthday with the family (his is May 9th) he got to join the festivities this year with his 6 other cousins (ranging from ages 3 to 16) :-)  And yes that is ALOT of birthday cake!  There was fireworks, water balloons, squirters and lots of yummy food.  A second pair of clothing was required..  the boys had so much fun.  I love the bond of family!  We stayed and partied late into the night, and Jacob suprisingly was all smiles and play till we left which was alittle after 10pm.  He fell asleep in the car and didn't wake up till the next morning (He slept right through a diaper change, and putting his pj's on!) 

chasing cousin Ashley around all night!

Elijah wanted a Spiderman cake...so I did the best I could:)
