Little Firecracker

Happy 4th of July!!

We had a great day today. I love July 4th and look forward to it every year. I love summertime and especially enjoy being outside by the pool. Today we went to my parent's house to do just that. Here's our first family 4th of July picture.
Owen and Daddy
Owen and Mommy
My mom gave this bouncer to Owen for Easter. Today was the first time he actually enjoyed being in it. He loved being able to jump up and down all by himself. He played in that thing for about 30 minutes and was completely entertained.
Daddy took Owen swimming in the pool.
Uncle Cody went too.

This little boy LOVES the water. He splashes and kicks his feet. I can't wait until next summer when I can start teaching him how to swim. I think he's going to be a natural.

Here's Cody with the cake that I made. That's right people...I made something and it was actually really yummy! I'm going to have to make it again sometime.

Owen rocking his cute 4th of July outfit that I bought months ago in anticipation of this day!

Owen's wishing you all a happy 4th of July!

So we didn't get the chance to take Owen to his first fireworks show because we are busy packing for vacation. We leave tomorrow for San Clemente. We are staying an entire week with Spencer's family in a beach house. I am so excited! (OK, so Spencer is packing the car while I am blogging!)
