Independence Day and such

We were given all of these! It was fun to make them all explode. Unfortunately Will got too cranky around 8:30 so he missed out on all the fun. It took 2 days to get Ruth back on a normal schedule, but she LOVED it. Her favorite part was climbing up our tree and onto the roof so she and dad could watch the big city fireworks.

Note the glow-in-the-dark bracelet she's sporting.

Earlier this week we went to the ice caves. We all had this idea in our heads about what it would be like based on a picture from the turn of the 20th century. The following picture demonstrates the best part of the ice caves:

Running through the sprinklers

I'm finally keeping flowers alive! We're all happy about that.

I miss running through the sprinklers...my kids are growing up without the joy of running through the sprinklers! What is this world coming to?
