4th of July 2013

Life is good. *happy sigh*

Yesterday was our Independence Day Celebration!! Most everyone from our church gathered at my parents house for an afternoon/evening of recreation, good food, fellowship, and a time of remembering the signing of the Declaration of Independence. I didn't take too many pictures because I was too busy talking with the amazing church family my Lord has blessed me with. While I was busy talking, Justin was busy beating the Dad's for the first time in their annual Father-Son volleyball match. Let's just say the guys were pretty happy to have won! 
The Lord finally blessed us with the perfect weather for our celebration. It was upper 70's to 80 with a lovely breeze and no humidity!! *cheers* It was fabulous! Some people even wore light jackets/sweaters. Like I said, perfect.

Anyway, enough writing and more pictures...

My darling love and I getting a picture together before everyone started coming...


I have said this before and I will say it again, cuteness runs in my family! Hattie is the perfect testament to that! Isn't she adorable in her little hat and dress? And those chubby cheeks? Goodness, I love her.


My cute siblings and outlaw brother William having fun playing in the sandbox. I'm pretty sure right before I took this picture they were singing "happy birthday" about to enjoy the little sand cake they had made together. 


This is only some of the people who were there. I love it when we have a full crowd of friends and family just relaxing with each other. 


Olivia being absolutely adorable as always. She seriously cannot get any cuter!


The little brother-in-love, Jadon figuring out the beanbag toss. Yes, his shirt is right, he is Captain Adorable! 


It's always a blast when Garr and Mel are there! These two are so sweet to watch together. 


Want to see some men turn into little boys? Just hand them some dangerous fireworks and watch the transformation take place before your very own eyes... With that said, they did a good job setting them off without hurting anyone.  


Jelly Bean!!!! In this picture she is telling me that her name isn't "Jelly Bean" by saying. "No jelly bean, no!" *laughs* Cutie pie! 


Justus is laughing pretty hard at me as I try to take his picture. He kept hiding from me so when I actually got it I was pretty proud of myself. Just look at that huge smile!


I end this post with these two beauties! Sara and Geneva are the best of friends and can always be found playing together. Their friendship is the sweetest thing to see. 


I hope each and every one of y'all had a fabulous celebration yesterday!! 

Until next time, 
~Meli
