In God We Trust

Every Year on the 4th of July we are reminded that the Lord's hand is every aspect of our lives, if we let him.  Even the coming about of the freedom of this blessed land, The United States of America! There is a reason he helped this land come about.  How grateful I am to be here.
For our celebration we got together with family.  Did the traditional bbq and swimming.  But this year, not only did we launch off some fireworks, but also some water balloons! The kids had a blast with this.  Even the men :). At the end they had the kids try catching their launched water balloons out in the field. (No one got hurt trying to catch them, just fyi ;)
We also got to meet my sister's new boyfriend.  Aren't they cute ;)?
Of course when the sun started to go down we gathered out on the lawn and deck, and watched Several different firework shows being lit off all around the Tri-Cities.  It was amazing! 
CraigRs has been smiling now too.  Oh I LOVE it!  Makes all his fussiness worth working through :).
