4th of July

The forth of July was fun this year we were able to spend it with Stephen's family. His brother and family decided on Wednesday to drive out to Utah to spend the weekend with the family. We haven't seen this brother in 3 years so we were really excited to see the. Here is a picture of Joseph with his cousin Joseph (or Jo Jo) playing in the playhouse.
Here is Sarah, Aaron, Jo Jo and Joseph playing in the playhouse.
We brought our slide and the little kids had fun on it. Aaron loved it so much he sometimes made it hard for the other little kids to use.
Aaron also loves the trampoline. Here is Sarah and Aaron on the trampoline.
Joseph on the slide and Jo Jo waiting patiently for his turn.
Adelaide helping Aaron down the slide. It was fun to get the chance to play with the Iowa Bairs.
Ruth and Joseph playing in the playhouse.
Jacob, Cathan and Adelaide waiting for the bouncehouse to blow up. This is always a big hit. The kids take turns and only kids of the same age are allowed on at the same time.
Aaron and his new love the slide.
Aaron with his fan club. Jo Jo, Cathan and Michael.
Time to wrestle on the trampoline. They all had such a fun time.
Grampa and Grammy Bair went to Jackson Hole the week before and had brought back Bison teeth for the grandkids to make necklaces out of. Joseph really enjoyed this project.
Then the best part of all, The Fireworks. Aaron was absolutly enthralled by the firey lights.
And he cheered after each one.
Joseph wasn't a fan of the noises but he like the fireworks as long as he wasn't on the front row.
Michael and Stephen lit the fireworks.
Sarah really enjoyed the fireworks too!
Here are Kate and Joseph, with Max, Chris and Miriam watching the fireworks.
Aaron looks so grown up in the chair. He had to have his own chair. He was not into sitting on laps.
Joseph awed by one of the fireworks!
We didn't get home until after 10pm. The boys were tired. It was definatly time for bed.
