My parents love all things patriotic, so the 4th of July is always fun at their house. The driveway is lined with flags, there are all forms of red and blue table settings, and patriotic CDs to belt to in the car. We also usually have a big gathering with my mom's side of the family. And this year did not disappoint.

In keeping with tradition, Gayle's family came the night before to watch the town fireworks (which are overrated, but we entertain ourselves by singing patriotic songs). Then Judd's family came the next day for a BBQ.

That night we celebrated Brandon's birthday and got in some more play time.

We fell asleep to crazy fireworks on the lake, while Ben enjoyed fireworks with the Adams and Chungs in Illinois. Stars and stripes forever!

Yay for updates!! We are missing you guys so much! Graham calls you on his playphone at least once a week and has a nice conversation with you! Love that picture of Grace's cheeks...awesome!! Your parents know how to celebrate the 4th and they do it so well! Looks like fun, we're sad we always miss it! Paige is adorable and getting so big!
