Fourth of July

On July 3, we headed over to Mandeville for a visit and the celebrate the 4th.


Opa and Rachel were resting the next morning after breakfast.  It took us FOREVER to get there with the traffic so it was a pretty late night before.

Henry decked out in his "little firecracker" outfit.  He loves the swing that Oma has for him.

Rachel painting a beautiful rainbow - currently her favorite art subject.

Tummy time on the couch.  We were sad Oma was visiting Australia so she did not get to see in person how well Henry is doing.

Owen says "cheese"

His painting is not quite as refined as Rachel's but he is making progress.

Celebrating Covington's 200th birthday!

Opa had fun on the outing.

Yummy watermelon

Sparklers to top off the evening

Owen was tempted to grab the sparkly part, but we managed to keep it under control.
