Can you believe how fast this year is going? Each year seems to go by quicker and quicker, my goodness. Of course we have like zero traditions still for the July holidays, I am such a slacker. We do have big plans for when we actually have a house and place of our own. Until then pajama day it was with some fun playing with toys and trying to do handstands (even Brooklyn was great at them).
We did spoil ourselves a bit this year though and tried the firecracker Oreos. They had pop rocks candy in them so it was strange but the kids seemed to like them. We also pulled out some of our stored poppers we had since Andie was a baby. Andie, Jake and Brooklyn loved throwing them at the cement so much we swung by the dollar store and had to buy more. I can handle the cheap fireworks when it comes to my wallet book so why not?
It was funny while we were outside playing Jake states, "I am hungry!" He then walks over to his tricycle with the little trunk and pulls out a whole vine of grapes. I don't know when he put them in there but it must of been that evening sometime. It was so funny and of course I had to snag a picture of his awesomeness with McQueen slippers and all.
The kids decided they would be brave enough for fireworks back in June for West Fest (not so good) but Andie decided she would play bravery next year and so it continued our same tradition of watching fireworks out my parents front room window and backyard. This is okay though because each year the fireworks get better and better as more neighbors set off the big ones.
Oh holidays you seem to sneak up on me but one of these years, in the far off future, I will be prepared for you haha! Plus maybe Daddy won't have to work some of them.
