We had a very fun 4th of July weekend! It was great being with friends, eating good food and letting the kids run wild. I swear they were up until eleven or so every night! It's summertime.
Saturday, we BBQ'd with friends and then went to a Corvallis Knight's baseball game. The stadium was packed, but it was the perfect night for a game. They had a great fireworks show afterwards, which almost made sitting through all 9 innings with the kids on our laps worth it. Our kids did actually really well, with a little candy, popcorn and glow sticks. This was our second game of the week and we have found that we really enjoy going to them. Nicholas loves to watch for "Mack" the Knight's mascot and can spot him a mile away. At one point in the game, Nicholas couldn't find him and concluded that "...he must be sleeping. Yep!" So funny!
Sunday, we topped it off with more food, more fireworks and of course, more fun. We did have to cut the night short due a complete meltdown by all 3 kids. It's all good now! They were good, tired and dirty after playing with sticks and fire all night long, every kids dream! Who could blame them! It's a beautiful country we live in and I am so grateful to be living in it!
Nicholas made a new best friends and ran around with him the whole night. It was so fun to watch them just be boys...poking around with sticks, finding rocks and playing with fire.
I love this picture with Karlee in the background! She stood like this the whole night!

Your kids are so darling! It looks like you had a great time. I love how your little girl was covering her ears...my little one starting bawling because the fireworks were "too loud" :)
Looks like a really fun weekend! My kids are in heaven when they get to just poke sticks in the dirt and play in rocks all day. :) And your yard looks gorgeous! I'm sure it's SO worth it, and I hope you get lots of harvest from your garden! Now we just need to come visit you. :)
