Happy 4th of July!

Wow, what a gorgeous day to be spent outside celebrating the freedom that comes along with living in the United States. I think, unfortunately, it's easy for us (Americans) to get caught up in the mumble-jumble of things that aren't really important and we forget about how lucky we are to be citizens of the United States of America. We have so many rights and freedom that people in other countries are literally dying for each day. Freedom is not free and I am so thankful for those citizens who serve to protect our country.
Our day was quiet, as Dan was sleeping, but Kailer and I spent the majority of it outside. This evening I was hoping that I could take Kailer out on the porch to watch fireworks, but he fell asleep about 10 minutes too early. He did get to see some last night that had him in awe.

Sporting his size 12 month 4th of July outfit. (The shirt is too big and the shorts are rolled at the waste to keep them up - skinny kid!)

A (terrible) attempt at a "self-portrait" of the two of us.
After Dan got up we were cleaning his truck in the driveway, so I found a good place to "store" Kailer so he wouldn't get into mischief! :)
