I love fourth of July! The last couple of years we just haven't done much celebrating of it though - which is a bummer. Our first fourth of July here in Denver we had just had Jacob and so didn't go out anywhere and last year was just crazy hot and so we didn't want to go anywhere so this year we were determined to go out and do something.
Some members of our ward were getting together at a park for a barbeque and we decided to join up with them! We are so glad we did and it was the perfect afternoon and evening. We got rained on for a couple minutes but even that was great - plus it kept the heat down which I was more than happy about!
Jacob had a blast throwing balls and playing on the playground showing Dad all of his moves! He even got to experience his first hamburger - what's more American than that?! Haha!
We are so grateful we were able to celebrate this holiday together as a family and with some friends and reflect on the many freedoms we enjoy. We are definitely proud to be Americans and thankful for all those who have fought and continue to fight for the freedoms which we enjoy.
Happy Birthday, America!
P.S. How crazy is this?! We have done this shot every year on the fourth of July since we've lived here in Denver. Fun to see the changes in our family and crazy to think where we will be next year!
