For Fourth of July Aimee and Tyler came up to spend the day with us (Karl had to sit this one out since he was still recovering from an illness). Since it was low tide we went down to the beach and let the kids look at all the sea creatures that were revealed. The kids really enjoyed it. We saw crab molts, sea anemones, starfish, and lots of shells. Harper gave me a run for my money too trying to wade into the deeper parts of the water on the beach.
It was actually a nice day, so we were able to enjoy our deck furniture for one of the first times this summer. Tyler had a great time playing the Kinect. He had some awesome helicopter moves while playing Fruit Ninja. Then we just watched fireworks from our deck. Avery and Harper watched for a little bit before they had to be put to bed, and Tyler fell asleep watching them. There were fireworks everywhere. Vashon's show was really nice to watch. It was a great holiday.

The kids also had a blast popping some bubble wrap I had laying around. |
Yay we could use our deck furniture! |

Night pictures are hard to take, but this gives you an idea of the show we had from our house. There were fireworks going for well over an hour. |
