Happy Pioneer Day!

This year for the 24th of July we spent the evening outdoors with neighbors. It was an impromptu get together, but still very fun. We all pooled our fireworks together and sat outside talking while kids played.

My niece Sam was here visiting for a few weeks and got to participate with us.

 

As usual, the only way my kids would watch the fireworks was with their ears plugged.

But they weren't the only ones!

 

sparklers are always fun

Spencer and our neighbor Coy cuddled while watching the fireworks. What goofballs!

Coy looks scary

I love our neighborhood and the many friends we have here. I hope that my children will remember what a blessing it is to have these friends and memories.
