Fireworks in Vancouver

We got to spend the 4th of July in Vancouver this year. We went and bought some fireworks for the kids (kids meaning Benny), and did them by our apartment.


Benny, Asi and Tre trying to light their roman candles.

The boys all shot their candles at the same time.

We sat and watched from the side. Kue wasn't so into the loud fireworks. So he stayed on my lap most of the time.

Daddy got Kaylie her sparklers.

Kue once again did not like holding the sparkler, Benny held it and he stood back.

Although we missed the 4th celebration in Idaho Falls, we had a good time in Portland. We were all together...healthy and happy.

BBQ at Vancouver Lake

We are in Vancouver for the next month with Benny for work. Uncle Solo invited us to the Lake for a 4th of July BBQ.


Kue and Cambrie playing in the sand.

Kaylie played in the sand but didn't step more than two feet in the water.

Kue and Cambrie...they played and played and played. They couldn't get enough of the sand.

They had a little area marked off for the kids to swim. Tre spent lots of time in the water playing with King.

Uncle solo throws a mean BBQ. There was so much food.

The girls just relaxing enjoying the outdoors.
