A Sparkly 4th of July

One thing that I have not been doing so great this summer is getting the camera out and taking photos.  The Erickson 5 had a great 4th of July weekend.  We headed down to some dear friends of ours for the weekend and we had a very relaxing and great time.

Sisters and Sparklers and take special note their matching shirts!

It was so nice to catch up with our dear friends while the kids got to play with the other kids.  We went to a party while we were down there and there was all boys there for K to play with.  He had a blast. 

Look at that smile!

He learned how to drive a 4 wheeler, go cart, and he even got to ride on a Spider.  Don't think the girls got left out though.  One of my favorite memories of the weekend was learning that those girls jumped in that go cart and took off.  Pedal to the medal with big grins on their faces the whole time. 

Even Dad enjoyed the Fireworks

We spent the 4th of July with Uncle T, Grandma and Grandpa A and Jane.  It was a great weekend. 

Mom in on the sparkler fun

We ended our celebration with sparklers and finally the camera to document our fun in the driveway and watching all the amazing fireworks in the neighborhood together huddle on our bed. 
Happy Birthday America!
