Red, White, & Blue

I very rarely put the kids in matching outfits, but for some reason red, white, and blue clothes for the 4th is so cute to me.  Last year they had coordinating outfits and my SIL took pictures of them and their cousins.  They were so cute I wanted to take pictures again this year. Unfortunately we didn't have my SIL this time so we were on our own. Wow! Taking pictures is difficult when you throw in a newborn and bad weather.  Huck ruined his outfit twice.  Yes twice! I washed it after the first time and he did it again almost immediately so I put him in something else entirely. Then there was bad weather to work around and Huck's naps.  We did get lots of cute pictures but we didn't get all the shots I wanted to. 

Here's what we got.

Can't forget Fenway :)

This last one I took with my cell phone

while we watched the firework show at Summerbrooke.

Quality isn't great but I really liked it.

Outside of all the picture taking we also had a great time celebrating the fourth.  Justin's parents came over for dinner and we set off our own fireworks before going to watch the ones at Summerbrooke.  The kids did party poppers, snap dragons, and sparklers too.  I think sending off their lanterns was their favorite. 

Hope you all had a happy 4th!
