Our fourth of July was very hectic and very fun. We started out with a visit to the pool, since we were going to be at Medinah, anyway.
Our friends, the Wendts, joined us for the carnival in the afternoon. These girls cannot get enough of each other.
Miles wanted to be in on the picture, too.
They enjoyed all the festivities. There were pony rides, as always.
I didn't get a picture of it, but Brooke and Kali went on a zip line ride that was about 20 feet high. Brooke got a little nervous at the top, but Kali jumped right off so Brooke followed.
Miles loved the train ride.
We headed straight from the carnival to a BBQ at Mike and Jane's. Again, no pictures. They hosted a really cute gender-reveal party where we found out that we're going to have another niece! I'm so excited. It'd be really great if she and Paige can be as close as Brooke and Lexi are. No pressure or anything. After the BBQ, we went straight back to Medinah for the fireworks display. This shot is horrible, but it's of Miles and Brooke running to Jamie when they saw her. It was incredibly sweet.
The gang (Mike and Jane got there later). During the display, Miles got really scared. Matt had to carry him away and he spent the whole thing with his head buried in Matt's shoulder. Of course, he's been talking about fireworks non-stop ever since. Brooke cuddled with Jamie and I held Paige, who just smiled and cooed the whole time.
Happy fourth of July, everyone!
*Special thanks to my friend, Laura, for the girls' adorable headbands!*
