Now that I'm officially on vacation for the summer (I worked at Connies all last month), Jordyn and I slept in late. However, first thing she decided to do once she was up and dressed was to go fishing. She got a few bites, caught one, and sent him back on his merry way. Then she had a little fishing line issue, so grandpa bear to the rescue! Then it was time to head down to Denver.
Aunt Gwen always has a big party for the 4th of July, but this year it was also a special memorial for Chad as well as a 4th of July celebration!
The 4th of July was always Chads favorite holiday...he loved fireworks and blowing things up, so Greg had a nice speech prepared for Chad and then the family all did a toast of fireball in his honor!
I love this photo of Chad posing with all of his firework loot...Gwen did a beautiful job on this memory board of him!
The day was filled with laughter and a few tears, but it was great to be among family and friends! Then it was time to get down to business...fireworks! Jordyn and Aiden are patiently waiting for the big show!
To appease the kids, we enjoyed some sparklers!
Check out this stash of illegal fireworks David brought over...oh YEAH!!!
Time to light some 4th of July fun!
The fireworks were amazing! Two other neighbors had purchased boxes of spectacular (illegal) fireworks too, so the show went on for hours! What a great day! Happy 4th everyone!!!
We miss you Chad!
