Happy Fourth!
We had a great Independence Day. Jeremy took the older 4 kids to the Butterfly Park & to get a treat in the morning. By the time they got home at 10:30ish they were sweaty & hot. We had a water balloon fight & played in the sprinkler in the afternoon & in the evening we headed to the place of some new friends we've met at church for a BBQ & firework show. They live kind of out of town a bit with some land. They have a party every year & probably 200-250 people come out for it. The food was good & the fireworks were amazing! It was seriously better than any city show I've seen except for maybe Seattle. I was impressed. Have I mentioned we've lived in Springfield for 2 years & 2 months & we are now in our 3rd ward (church congregation) & we have stayed in the same house?? It's craziness but I actually really like it. It's been fun to meet lots of new people every time they switch us around & I reaaaallllly like this newest ward we're in.
I think this is the coolest picture Jeremy took of this Praying Mantis. I think he should submit it to the National Geographic Amateur contest (if that even exists).

Your new camera takes great pictures! Our fireworks were pretty blurry, but yours were not!! I've only seen a praying mantis (sp) in a book, very cool!! Love the red-white & blue clothes too. Dallen has those great thighs all your babies have had. So cute! Glad you like your new ward and had a great 4th. We are excited to see you soon.

I think it's funny that you can write things like "Jeremy took the older 4 kids..." and it makes sense.
What a great Fourth! Love the family pictures!
Your 4th of July looks so fun and festive! I love seeing all the kids outside playing together.
Oh, that top picture is awesome! Look at your beautiful family!!
