Independence Day 2011

 Every Independence day should start with the Yankees playing ball!  We were trying to start the party and the guys were all inside watching t.v., oh and Marcie, but she had a good excuse.  We had such a good time visiting with friends and were so glad to be invited to the Richardson's home to celebrate America! 
 The boys were getting so physical with wrestling and play kicking that finally Erik joined in to distract them a little bit.  It was driving me crazy those little boys all fighting.  Everyone kept telling me that's what little boys do, well I don't like it at all!  Someone always gets hurt...
 Taylor eventually couldn't take it any longer and had to join in on the wrestling!

 After the BBQ at the Richardson's we stopped at home to change into warmer clothing and head out of the city limits to the Rigtrup's home to light off fireworks. It is really silly, they are only a few blocks from a school and yet are in unincorporated King county. All fireworks, even sparklers, are banned in Renton and we were so happy to be invited.  I love fireworks!  We are usually in Utah or Portland and get to light fireworks off there.  We were here last year too, and we went to bed early.  This year we were fortunate to be near Chahalis and picked up some really cool cake fireworks, like the Massive Destruction!  Bug eyed kiddos!
