4th of July!

Our 4th of July was wonderful! We had dinner at Jo's (Ben's aunt)house and then went to the private Kissing Camels/Garden of the Gods Club Fireworks show. We had a blast with family and enjoying the fireworks. Although the Fireworks show was quite fast because of weather it was fun to watch. I actually enjoyed watching Alivia watch the fireworks over watching the fireworks myself. Alivia had a tough night though because she has become rather content with her 8:00 p.m. bedtime that when 8:00 p.m. came and went, she became one fussy baby. She fell asleep at about 8:30 p.m. and then woke up for the show. She cried before the show and after the show but she was mesmerized by the fireworks that during the show she did no crying! :) It was cute to watch her take in the loud noises and the colorful explosions in the dark night sky. Our attempt at a family picture, Alivia was super tired at this point. Alivia watching the fireworks! We were able to celebrate with Ben's family: Jo, Billie, Amy, Janelle, Lauren, Luke, Joel, along with a family friend Carol.
