July 4th

We were still in Palestine for July 4th and what a fun day it was!  I have a ton of pictures from the day.

Steve and Stephen went to take Stephen for a walk in the morning so I went out to take some pictures.  It was so humid my lens fogged up and it took forever to clear up.



Still a little foggy.



That's better!





After everyone was up we all took a long ride together.  I took this of Stephen while we were riding.

I took a bunch of pictures of Stephen while we were riding while he was sitting next to me with Steve and also while we were at Fred's.  Two things to note about these pictures.  One, although he is not smiling, he was happy.  When there is so much going on, he just looks around and takes everything in. And he gets really red cheeks just like his daddy.  It was hot, but not too hot, but he looks over heated in these pictures.  I made sure he was ok and offered him water while we were out.



The humidity really made his hair curl!




























We stopped by the pier pond before heading back for lunch and naps.











While Stephen napped, so did I!  We had a rough night Tuesday night as Stephen woke up when we came to bed so Stephen and I slept on the couches.

Someone else also decided to take a nap.





Stephen took Stephen on a little ride down the driveway on the 4 wheeler.  Don't worry, he went very slow and was very safe!



Can you see them?









Then I took Stephen on a ride in his wagon.  He was doing so good keeping his hat on this weekend!









I wanted to get a good picture of him in his July 4th outfit and thought this would be the perfect place.  He thought the rocks would make a nice snack.



So we moved to the grass.  Where he thought the grass would be a good snack- seriously!



But I still got a few good ones!






Later that afternoon, Stephen, Stephen and I took a little ride together.  We found the donkeys.









Stephen was also doing so good keeping his sunglasses on.  He would laugh and giggle when we would put them on him.





After Stephen went to sleep, we went down to the pier to shoot.








This gun was really loud, so Stephen held the boys ears.  Such a good uncle!  I love his facial expressions though.







We ended the night with fireworks on the driveway.

Fountains!  I love fountains!






Happy Fourth of July!!!
