Our 4th of July

This year we spent our 4th with the other Sundelins : ) and had a blast. The day before the big celebration, Nils and I went to get some fireworks. This was my first time going with him, and I loved it! I love the smell of the fireworks because it reminds me of my Peru, so been around that smells was very neat for me. Nils got some small fireworks for the kids and some big toys for him and Tore to play. This was Charlie's first time he enjoyed the fireworks with us. So, we all got ready with our fetive colors and headed to the Sundelins house.

Oh yeah and I made this:

"Mormon jello shots" like Nils likes to call them .

Strawberry cupcakes

We of course got some goodies for the kids:

Bubble makers

Water guns

We enjoyed dinner together, chili dogs made by Tore, and couscus made by Tiffany, ate some watermelon (which I don't usually do) and had a wonderful 4th of July. Those kids sure makes us laugh, and Charlie loves hanging out with them.

Later on, we started setting up chairs outside their house so we could all enjoy the fireworks. It was getting kind of cold, so I asked Nils to get my sweater from the car that was park accross the street. On his way to the car he found this:

A wasp nest!!! Scary!

Two years ago I took this picture with my nieces and nephew:

This year we decided to make it a tradition:

Then, it was time for Nils and Tore to play. They were all smiles after every time they light a firework. They were the happiest boys on earth and the rest of us enjoyed the beautiful show. Oh wait did I say all of us?! I meant all of us except for Charlie.
