Fourth of July

Rain, rain go away come again some other day! What did we do on the fourth of July? Well it rained an inch here in Plainfield, so we stayed inside for the entire Fourth of July! We did have a fun time preforming a skit for my parents though! We made pom-poms out of Walmart bags, Simon was Uncle Sam, Natalie sang a song, Drew did a little dance and we ended the skit with fireworks from Disneyland off of YouTube. All in all we had a pretty fun Fourth of July!

This movie is a combination of the pictures we got from our Simpson and Niederer cousins and the pictures we took of ourselves on the Fourth of July! Enjoy!

We went to the Indianapolis Museum of Art on Friday July 3rd. It was so beautiful! We didn't stay long but we stayed long enough to know that we love it! The paintings were very pretty as were the grounds of the Museum. We had such a good time at the museum!

Drew and Simon have been learning to ride their bikes! This first video is Drew getting started by himself on the first day of learning to ride his bike. Although Simon has had a harder time... he is doing a lot better! Here is a video of Simon's progress.

We went to the butterfly garden in the Indianapolis Zoo Monday July 14th (yesterday) It was really pretty! I did enjoy it but... I was totally engrossed in the Hunger Games! It was an awesome book! We also did a little rowing down the Indianapolis Canal also. It was a really fun day!

So now you are all caught up on our past few weeks!

Oooh, we went to a butterfly garden in Arizona. It was way cool. What a great idea to do a collage of 4th of July photos! We love you.

You guys sure know how to have a good time! Good job on the bikes boys!! Aaron and Ashton still need to learn. Maybe you could give them some good advice. :)

No one made me aware that if we failed to send fourth of July pictures the majority of the home video would be made up of close facial shots of Darrin. My apologies for not submitting our pictures. Believe me when I say that on the next holiday we will be more prompt!
