July 4th Weekend

We had an awesome July 4th weekend. On Saturday we went to the Sunflower Festival. We've never been before, but we had a wonderful time. Levi loved the tractor parade, animals, and the music. That evening we went to our friends' house for a July 3rd party. Chad & Whitney were gracious hosts and we had an awesome time of fellowship with everyone. The ice cream bar and sparklers were big hits as well. On the 4th we just relaxed around the house after church and then met Aaron's family to watch fireworks in Jackson. Levi loved the fireworks, but was not a fan of the noise they made. He watched from Aaron's lap as Aaron covered his ears. However, you'd never know if you talked to him. He raves about how they go "Pop! And then fall to the ground." On the 5th we enjoyed Aaron being home. We spent the morning playing with Levi in "his" pool. That evening we hung out with my sisters and some of their friends for a cookout. We had so much fun this weekend. I hated to see it end. We are very grateful to all the men and women who haved served and are currently serving our country to protect our freedom. I hope you know how much you are appreciated.
