Jadyn's first 4th of July (outside the womb)

Well...I'm a little bummed. I had the cutest 4th of July outfit for Jadyn to wear today, but because it was only 80 it just wasn't warm enough. She had an outfit for everyday this week that was red,white, and blue. I plan on putting her in her 4th outfit towards the end of next week when it's supposed to be in the 100's again. Here is a pic of one of her outfits...well shirts at least we are currently into not wearing pants around the house. WAIT I should clarify...Jadyn doesn't wear pants...the rest of us do :)
It was a beautiful night tonight. We had a great time with friends and family. It was fun watching Kyle and his boys, Greg and Jadyn, and Loribelle in the pool and hot tub. They all had a great time! After a delightful dinner, swimming, and homemade ice cream we sat around tables and chatted until Jadyn was practically asleep. We loaded her up and headed home. I'm hoping that the fireworks around here won't keep her (or me) up tonight.

What a great way to celebrate the freedom that we have in our country. We need to be thankful for those freedoms and we need to not grow complacent and let our current government take any of those away. What a shame it would be to take 2 steps back after so many men have fought to give us the life we lead today.

I would also like to take a moment to get a little bit mushy :). I am so thankful for a kind, caring, husband who wants what is best for our family. He protects both me and Jadyn everyday by standing up and doing what is right. He is a Godly man who works very hard to provide for us not just physically but mentally and emotionally as well. I don't tell him enough how proud I am of him and thankful that he loves me and our daughter more than anything! We are very blessed to have him in our lives!
