Fourth of July

This year, we went boating with my sister and her family for the 4th.  It was over 100 degrees by 10:00, but we lasted on the river until 3.  Parker loved riding the boat. 

And driving it, too.

We stopped frequently at sand bars so we could swim around and stay cool. 

 Ryan did some wake boarding, the adults knee boarded, and we all rode the tube.  Even Parker!  He rode with Ryan and Alaina, and we were going really slow, but he enjoyed it. 

Later that night, we went to see fireworks in Byron.  Parker kept saying "I see fyewoks up in the sky."  And after the first one went off he said, "All done fyewoks.  Time go bye-bye." He enjoyed sitting on Papa's lap through most of it.  I love the fourth!
