The 4th of July

With Kynlee being gone to Chelsey's we had our little party with just the three of us. It was quiet (we did do a few "pop pops") and relaxfull. We had dinner at the Cheesecake Factory and didn't even have to wait in line. With everyone else going to see the big fireworks we were all by ourselves.

Krayden and Dad in their Red, White and Blue

He was helping dad in the garage and just has a few dirty fingerprints on his face to show all of his hard work.

He finally got to wear his shirt with the star on it. Kynlee kept wanting him to wear it and then she wasn't even here to see it.

"How does this work?"

Getting a little instruction

Do this one, it looks neat

"pop pop pop" I had to say this each time or he would get a little nervous. So now he calls fireworks "pop pops".

He was mad, he wanted to light them and his dad told him no and to get back. He was throwing a mini fit.

I love how kids get so excited when they experience things for the first time. Krayden was so fun to watch as he would get excited and then want to be just like his dad. We missed Kynlee today but we know that she is having a good time with Chelsey and Papa. I am so thankful for the freedoms that we have and for the men and women who fight and who have fought to keep that freedom.

Happy 4th of July
