Fourth of July

One of Trey's favorite holidays is the fourth of July.  So it's a must for everyone to be in red, white, and blue!  I usually go out and get something cute for the girls to wear, but Madeleine sent the girls some outfits this year.  I am grateful for that because I haven't been getting out to do shopping as much with three kids who are 3 and under.  Everyone got dressed in our patriot colors and we headed over to Pearl Harbor to let Riley & Hadley enjoy some of the festivities going on.  They both played a few games, rode on the little carousel, and Riley went into a bounce house.  After about an hour we were all sweating like crazy and decided that we should make our way home and fill the pool up for the girls.  

We stayed in our backyard for the rest of the afternoon into the evening.  The girls played in the pool and ran around in the backyard enjoying the day.  Trey & I sat on the back porch just watching Riley & Hadley have a good time.  After our long day outside we got the girls bathed and I put Hadley & Emrey to bed.  Riley got to stay up for the fireworks show.  

We are able to watch the fireworks from our backyard.  Riley was so very excited to see them, especially the ones that looked like smiley faces!  After we saw the fireworks that came from Waikiki, Trey took Riley over to Ford Island so they could watch the show going on at Pearl Harbor.  Riley was extra excited that she was getting to go see another firework show.  When they got home Riley was exhausted.  It was a fun-filled day and I'm excited for next year when, hopefully, Hadley will be able to stay awake to see the fireworks with us!
