All American Boy!

Our "All American Boy" enjoyed his first 4th of July celebration. Mr. Mike and Mrs. June(my best friend Kelly's parents) were sweet and invited us to a 4th of July cookout at their house! We never pass up a chance to eat good food or to spend time with some of our favorite people. Mary Hannah and Audrey, John Turner's friends from church, were also there. He had fun playing with them. He also had fun chasing Mrs. June's dog, Betsy, around the house!

After enjoying a delicious meal, we all headed to the lake for the fireworks show. We weren't quite sure how John Turner would react to the fireworks or if he would even be able to stay awake late enough to see them(his bedtime is usually around 7:30 and the fireworks didn't start until 9:00)! He stayed awake and enjoyed the fireworks very much!

In his stroller and ready for the long hike up to the lake!

He was excited when Carly, Gran, Granpa, Uncle Chris, and Aunt HaHa showed up for the fireworks!

He was getting antsy waiting on the fireworks to start!

The beautiful lake


Below are a few fireworks pictures I captured. They were so stunning! The pictures don't do them justice!

The ducks at the lake didn't care too much for the fireworks!

This was at the end of the night. As you can see the thumb was in the mouth which means he was ready for bed! We must have worn him out because he didn't get up until after 9:00 this morning!
