We started out the day with some fun water play at Cory's brother's house. Running through the sprinklers and slip-and-slide.
Next, the kids played volleyball.
We enjoyed a nice lunch, and then it was time to open presents!
The girls were excited because they got their presents early from their Iowa Aunt and Uncle.
After presents, we headed down to the local pool for a little while.
Then it was back to the house for cake, ice cream, another volleyball match (with grown-ups this time) and sparklers.
After the kids finished with the sparklers, we walked up the street to a neighborhood fireworks show. We laid out some towels in an open lot, and had a front row seat for an awesome show. It was just as good as any of the surrounding city's fireworks shows, and it was a lot less crowded! It was a long, fun day, and everyone slept well that night!
