I love the 4th of July because all of my family gets together to celebrate. This year was especially wonderful because Meg and her family are visiting from Pennsylvania. We all met at my parent's house in the afternoon to go swimming.
Ella started off by just dipping her feet in.
She never smiled, but she was definitely enjoying the water.
Ella wouldn't take her feet off of Emily's pregnant tummy the whole time they were in the pool together. Even when we tried, Ella put them right back on.
We ended up putting her in this little floaty toy which she just ate.
The little girls went back and forth from this tiny water slide to the pool. They had LOTS of fun in the water.
Eva was posing for me.
Lucy and Jane were taking a quick break hoping to get warm.
Elena and Eowyn decided to dry off on the trampoline.
After lots of fun swimming we dried off and got ready for the bbq. Meg and I decorated sugar cookies while people prepared the real food.
After dinner we had a WATER FIGHT
It started with water balloons but quickly turned into a war of hoses
Dad (or Grandpa) was the first major target.
Eva even got the hose for a little while and grandpa surrendered himself. Very quickly Emily called out Gustavo and he became the new target.
Emily chased him around the yard while he tried to hide. He finally ran over and got another hose. You can't see Gustavo because he was trying to hide behind the tree, you can just see the spray from both hoses as the two drenched each other.
My dad ended up turning off Gustavo's hose so he just jumped into the pool where my nieces continued the attack.
