Super Fun

This past weekend we had FUN! Our friends, Ethan & Jen, invited us to go with them to Eagar, Arizona for the 4th with another couple and their 2 kids. Of course we accepted! We were so excited to hang out with friends again (it has been since Texas that we have really had good friends to hang out with) So we piled into the van and drove the 3 1/12 hours.
On the 4th of July the town of Eagar has a huge parade down main street - so we took all the kids (we had 9 kids!)
How cute are these 2 little boys? They are the boys of the other family that was there.


When the "floats" and cars and horses would drive down the road they would throw things at the kids, mostly candy but sometimes it was otter pops and Frisbees.



Then after the parade we took the quads for a little spin. The kids (especially Olivia) got SO DIRTY!

Boys and their toys....



The boys had fun playing Frisbee in the out and open.



The older kids (Ryleigh, Tayler, Kylie, Spencer, Ethan, and Everett) wanted to climb the hill so we let them. They made it about 30 feet up the hill and turned around, but it kept them busy for a while.

Then we went out for fireworks and has SO MUCH FUN! We had some of our own that we lit and enjoyed and then the town of Eagar put on their own show and it was really impressive. We had so much fun!!
