4th of July Fun!

I forgot to share pics of my boys making there fireworks on paper last week so I figured I'd make a post about our 4th of July and of there craft!

Dylan trying to work on his he had a hard time with the squeezing the bottles of glitter glue.

Austin working on his firework picture

Austins finished firework

Dylans finished firework! 

Now we had a great time on 4th of July. We took the boys to the local Art in the Park and Carnival. 

Dylan tried out the teacup ride but I ended up having to make the man stop the ride to get him he didnt like it at all and wouldnt ride any other rides other than the carousel. Maybe next year? Austin loved trying new things some of them he didn't want to do again and others he rode more than once.

Here's a few pictures (Id post more but they have some of our friends kids in them and I want to respect them by not posting there children online)

Daddy and Dylan on the carousel

Austin riding on the boats

 

 They both got there faces painted.

Dylan wanted a football and as you can tell didnt sit still really so it was as good as it could be!

And Austin wanted fireworks!

And then we all headed back to the truck to sit and wait for the firework show! 

Hope you all had a great 4th of July Weekend!

Fourth of July Theme

 

This next week were are focusing on Fourth of July!

I was going to make a Tot Kit but just didnt have enough time. But we got lucky and 2 Teaching Mommies made a very cute one that we are going to use instead.

 Some Crafts we plan on doing as well this next week are

-Glitter Fireworks- We are taking a black sheet of construction paper, and using glitter glue sticks and making fireworks.

-Make Paper Flags out of Construction Paper

If you have any other ideas feel free to share in the Comments as I am looking for other stuff to incorporate as well!

4th of July Weekend

I hope everyone had a happy 4th of July! We had so much fun! Sunday we cooked out and luckily managed to do it before the rain set in. They ended up canceling the city firework show till Monday because of the rain. So Sunday night when it wasn't raining we did some sparklers and snappers. I should have bought hundreds of these. The boys loved them so much! Dylan wouldn't touch the sparklers which was fine with me! So Monday we cooked out again and then headed to the park where they do the fireworks. We sat in the back of Daniels truck for several hours to be sure we had a good seat for the show! The boys loved it! Austin didnt like the finale he ended up covering his eyes, I think it was just to much at once for him.

Heres a few pics from our weekend
