Stars & Stripes

This year we watched fire works on the Rupert Square with my family. It was a blast!! The fire work show was really good. I was curious to see if Teague would get scared or if he would like them. Turns out he totally loved them. He ooooed and aweddd, and kept calling the fire works balls.

He looked so dang cute all dressed up to watch the fireworks!! Teague wanted Jerica to hold him so bad, but she was holding Saige. Being the good Auntie she is she picked him up and tried to hold them both.


Teague was waiting so patiently for the parade to start in his big boy chair. Ellie, Teague, and baby Saige all dressed up in their Red, White, and Blue. He enjoyed watching the parade this year, and was very content to sit on dad's lap under the umbrella.


Teague and Saige are already the best of buddies. He kinda is a little rough at times with her, but most of the time she doesn't mind. She even puts up with the spit he leaves all over her face when he kisses her. He hates when she cries and is always there with a love for her so she will stop crying. His favorite is putting her bottle and binky in her mouth, he will clap after wards like jeeze I'm amazing!! They looked so adorable in their 4th of July outfits.


After the parade we went to my Aunt Cynthia's house for lunch. It was a lot of fun to eat and hang out with family. There was a slip-n-slide there for the kids to play with, Teague found it and was soaked so fast! He loves to play in water, but just as long as he is in charge of the hose. He had a blast spraying everyone giggling all the while. Good thing Mom was prepared and brought him another outfit. ;)

Latter that night we watched the fire works on the Burley Golf Course. Teague had so much fun pulling the grass and throwing it on all of us. He was so wound up he really didn't watch the fire works unless there was a big boom. It was a late night but he was a trooper. We had a wonderful 4th of July and enjoyed celebrating our country's freedom. I'm so thankful for everyone who is keeping us safe, may they be watched over and protected while they are away from their families.

Fun! He's so cute! Jackobi loved the fireworks this year too -- it's fun now that they can get excited over things like that! I think it's funny he loves to be in charge of the hose -- Jackobi is the same way! Give her a hose and she'll be entertained for literally an hour!

I love his obsession with balls! I think that is so stinkin' cute. And that up close picture of Teague and Saige is so sweet! In their little red, white, and blue outfits--love it!
