All smiles, ready to roll...
We had a little picnic before doing some exploring...
Then we took the mile long walk on a path through the cedar trees, where we saw over 100 dinosaur replicas - ROAR...
It was pretty cool, but after only 30 minutes in the 106 degree weather, we were all ready to head inside to the air conditioned museum. This next picture says it all...
Needless to say, we didn't quite make it out to the state park - it was just way too hot. We came straight home and had naps instead!
We started out the 4th by heading to the Cleburne parade...
Some of the cowboys let the kids sit on and pet their horses afterwards, they loved it! Of course Ryan was jealous since he has been dying to get back on a horse for awhile now...
Our American beauty...
Two pretty little patriots...
And our all American boy...
Next we grilled WAY too much food...
Mmmm...polish sausage...that looks like a baker's dozen...
And we spent the rest of the day in the pool. Carver loves the pool - he is absolutely fearless...
That night we headed to the far side of Lake Pat for the fireworks show. We were hoping to avoid the crowd so we could set off some fireworks of our own afterwards...but alas, the Cleburne cops were on the prowl and they weren't having it. So we just headed back to the house and lit our explosives there...take that 5-0!
What holiday would be complete without an all night game of some sort? We played Ticket to Ride and I blew everyone out of the water (okay, so Ryan might have beat us all the night before but I reclaimed the title and came out on top)...

It looked like you had a fun 4th of july. Poor Carver looks so hot in that one picture. Do you make the twins bows? They are always so cute. I hope you are doing good!
Sounds like a blast! Hot but fun. You have such a cute family.
