This year for the 4th we went down to the Jensen's for a family BBQ/Jax's 3rd birthday party. The girls could not wait to go down and asked everyday leading up to it when we were going. They LOVE their cousins and it makes me so incredibly happy to watch them play with them. It has been scorching hot here, we aren't use to these high temps. It was near 100 on the 4th so we were very happy to use the Jensen's above ground pool.

Now, we all knew that the next day Jenny would be induced. The family did not know her name though...except me :) Which I had kept a secret because if they knew I knew, they would hassle me. How did I know? Years and years ago I gave Jenny some truth serum (aka, alcohol) and plucked her names out of her brain.
So the family finds out I know and man oh man it was on. They would not let up, especially Lance. He was determined to find out. After quite a while he finally guessed the letter...Z. Once he got it he went on his phone to figure it out. Then loudly shouted...ZOEY! It's ZOEY!!!
I haven't seen him that excited in a long time, he was ecstatic and so was the whole family. It was such a fun way to find out the name and of course we all love it.
The girls couldn't wait for the fireworks to come out. We kept busy with swimming and rousing game of baseball. Then finally it was dark enough for glow sticks and fireworks...
The headphones were perfect for our girls who have an aversion to loud noises.
Nice photo bomb Schuyler!
After a long day of fun and even longer evening, the girls crashed hard...
