We went to a free Independence Day Family Event.
Patrick, Morgan and Samantha found places to sit and look grumpy while the rest of us walked around.
Stuart and Raeleigh loved the pitching practice. They each got to throw three balls. This is a picture of Raeleigh just after she pitched the ball. Look closely and you can see the ball in the air.
There were so many bounce houses. This one was like an obstacle course with big slide at the end. Stuart and Raeleigh both loved this.
There were four water bounce houses. This was the kids favorite. They loved to run and throw themselves down for a slide. Raeleigh is in the first picture and Stuart is in the second. Samantha eventually decided to try it out, she is in the 3rd picture.
Samantha, Stuart and Raeleigh had a great time getting wet! We were glad Samantha found something to be happy about.
While Stuart and Jordan waited in line for shaved ice, Samantha and Raeleigh played catch with a tiny football.
I snapped this picture of Patrick on the way home. He was so not happy to be with the family. Teenagers you just got love 'em and laugh!!!!

Just before we left the kids got a snack of dirt to eat. The dirt was in a big trough!

I posted about the teenage thing on another post. But I have to say I dealt with a smidge of this when we were in Washington, D.C. this past March. (Look at my photos on FB) Victoria threw a temper tantrum in front of the White House because she wanted to go inside and see Obama (LOL!) and Jordan was sooo embarrassed! The pictures I took in front of the White House reflect their moods. What a horrible mommy--taking them on a mini-vacation and FORCING them to go do fun things. LOL! Jordan even had an attitude at the Washington, D.C. Zoo. I just had to laugh -- and try to remember I was the same way when I was his age. xoxo
