4th Of July At the Cabin

We had a fun 4th this year at the cabin, although we were inside quite a bit and had a fire everyday! Hayden became an expert at climbing the ladder to the loft and loved going up there to play. Lilly got pretty good going up, but needed to be carried down.

Mark even got in some good vacuuming. Why doesn't he do that at home??

One day, Lilly decided that she needed her clothes off. Hayden came inside and saw Lilly naked, so he decided he needed to be naked too! I guess it's more fun to run around naked than with clothes on. Lilly even thought it was a good idea for others to be naked, but no one took her up on her request!
Hayden loved the motor boat, especially when he got to be the driver!

And of course, Lilly had to try it out too!

Here is the completed kayak that mark built, paint and all (it's the turquoise one)

Having fun outside

Going fast in the boat!

The best part about smoke bombs is running through the colorful smoke. Must be good for the asthma!

Playing poker with the big boys!!

Throwing snaps. Lilly got pretty good at putting them carefully on the ground and then stomping on them.

Being entertained by the little dog, Lu by lining up jar lids on her. You never know what will entertain a child!

Having fun with Kyle

Getting the best view for the fireworks

And then another view! She sure knows how to make friends!

Hope everyone had a good 4th!!
