4th Of July

4th of July is huge at my parents house we always BBQ, play at the lake and light a ton of fireworks. This year Tyler had to work 2-10pm but it still worked out. He was able to come get fireworks at Muckleshoot that morning, our yearly tradition and he was home in time to light off fireworks.
This year was espescially fun because we had extra family in town not to mention the weather was great for playing at the lake.

We tried to watch the lake show from the deck/roof but they moved the barge this year and a tree was blocking the best parts so we had to run down to the private beach.

I was so worried about the dogs being stressed out about the fireworks. Especially Piper since this is her first year. You can see how much she cared! She was passed out on my lap pretty much the whole time.
Lola on the other hand wanted to eat the fireworks and almost did so my cousin Cullen helped me hold her back from them!
Always hose your fireworks off when your done! A couple years ago we had a garbage can catch on fire a week later from smothering fireworks. Good thing the boys were outside playing when it happened or it could of been bad. It was already so high when we ran outside.

Alexa and Piper...So cute!
