4th of July fun.

We had a blast at the 3rd annual Leather Strap Block Party. Don't laugh....it is our street name. Each year we barricade ourselves in and play like crazy. The kids love it because no traffic can come in or out. We all had a great time eating, drinking, laughing and playing with our neighbors. There was a water-slide, volley ball games, water balloons and tons of sparklers for after dark.
Emily and Amber wearing patriotic specs...getting in the spirit.
DeeDee, Layla, Luke and Gary cooling off in the pool.
Layla on the awesome water-slide. Last year she was terrified of the slide...this year we couldn't keep her off of it! It was a huge hit for all the kids.

We are so lucky to live in a great neigborhood with awesome friends! Thanks for all your hard work Amber...you are a great party planner. Everyone had a great time!
