Our 4th of July celebration included going to Scott and Susan's house to let the kids run around outside and play in the kid pool. Kate was a big fan as always-- she loves to play with her cousins. They spent all morning outside and then came in to eat lunch. Then after naps we played outside again until dinner. After dinner Scott broke out a few kid friendly fireworks. Kate LOVED the sparklers! The rest of the cousins ran away from the fire at first, but not Kate. That child has no fear!
We had to supervise her only because she kept trying to share the sparklers with Dallin. She kept saying "Dallin's turn!" and trying to hand him the burning end.
Doing our Lady Liberty pose....or just staring at the fire, whatever works.
The cousins all crowding around Susan to get snaps. Kate thought they were mildly entertaining, for a second. She was underwhelmed compared to the fire.
But the poppers we played with next Kate was very excited about. She kept running over to Scott and asking for more please. It was fun to watch her.
I love the concentration on her face. She is such a 'studier'. Takes after her dad there. She is always trying to figure out how things work.
And one final sparkler with proof mom was there. Don't mind the super flattering pose...remember the baby belly!
We are so blessed to live in this country with all of our freedoms. I am proud to be an America and grateful to all of those who sacrificed to secure our freedom.

The first one of Kate with the sparkler makes me think she is a proud torch carrier from the olympics. Adorable.
