July 4th: Part III

 The slip 'n slide was the highlight of July 4th at my parents house. All the big kids played on it for a good two hours while Ruth was sleeping, which was great because then most of them had left to do other things and I turned the water down and let Ruth play on it for awhile. Of course, there were SOME kids around...because, really, there were kids EVERYWHERE.
Ruth loved it. She laughed at the water, she laughed at Eli, she laughed at Myles, and she thought it was great fun.




Another highlight of the day was the new baby. There are big naming battles going on right now.




Myles and Eli kept her pretty occupied. So cute.

Mom had us all sing a patriotic song before we could get dessert. SO many kids!!!


This is my cousin Clay and his family. They lived in Logan a few years ago when I was still in high school and Devaney was definitely not a teenager yet, time flies! They just moved back and its fun to add another family to the festivities!

Chilling with dad who FINALLY emerged with physics homework complete.


There was a lot of koob-playing going on, which was lots of fun, and Ruth spent her time watching and eating everything off the sidewalk she could find.

A ride with grandpa!



And a ride with daddy.

It was a perfect 4th of July filled with TONS of partying and the most beautiful little 4th of July girl there ever was.
