Fourth of July

This year was the first year that Connor and I celebrated the Fourth of July just the two of us.  And if I do say so myself, we did a pretty good job at making it lots of fun!! That morning we went and played at Seven Peaks and relaxed in the sun.  Then we came home and got cleaned up and relaxed and made some yummy food that is a MUST to have on the Fourth.  For example, Connor's FAVORITE part of Fourth of July is his mom's seven layered dip.  So, the night before we got the recipe from his mom and got all the ingredients we needed and Connor too it upon himself to make it as delicious as she does.  And let me tell ya what, it was TASTY!!!! 

We also made some shishkabobs- Which is one of our most favorite dinners ever! 

And I made a red white and blue layered jello!!!! You can't really see the layers very well in this picture, but I was very excited about it. 

Connor was a HAPPY boy with all the DELICIOUS food we had that day.  

We also went to the movies AND sat out and watched that fireworks before bed!! Does a day get better than that?! I'd say the Fourth of July this year, was a SUCCESS!!
