more fourth of july

After the parade and a nice nap, we hosted a little neighborhood bbq and waterslide party.



Kevin and Isabelle brought the coolest little hamburger cookies - they looked exactly like the real thing but were made of all little cookies, icing and coconut. They are the world's coolest neighbors and a great model for raising a son and daughter.
We ate, drank and threw waterballons. The night ended with insane fireworks brought in from Wyoming - huge, loud, totally illegal in pdx, and enthralling to the teenagers on the street. My kids hid in the air conditioned bedroom with the fan on high to drown out the noise. We all slept like a dream after the busy day.
