Happy 4th!

We took the kids to see fireworks downtown. We were unsure how they would do; Isaac became very upset when he heard fireworks earlier this year. He didn't want to stay outside and see them or even listen to the booms. He asked me to take him inside. Brooke, on the other hand, loved them and stayed outside with Eric to see them. However, the kids did a great job. B sat on Eric's lap to watch the fire works and Isaac sat on my lap. 
Before we left to go downtown the kids played outside for a bit to run off some steam.

The good news is that His plan is always better than ours; so if He wants us to have another baby, then a new baby is exactly what we need!
