Happy 4th of July, part 2!

On the 4th, we went over to Becky and JJ's for some swimming and some more food :-)

Em, hanging out in the pool.

There were a few options for fireworks but we decided to go to Newberry because they were supposed to have skydivers as well. The boys had a great time on the inflatables and we ate some funnel cake for the first time (I prefer an elephant ear, but it was good). Pretty soon, we saw a small plane circling the football field.

The perfectly good airplane 3 people were going to jump out of.

They circled until they got to 5000 feet and then they all jumped, one right after another.
I managed to get one picture with all three of them in it.

The guy with the yellow and purple chute was doing flips and spins.

I think this one is my favorite. I love that you can see the sun reflected on the flag and his parachute.

It was pretty cool to watch. The kids really liked it too.

Matthew, waiting (im)patiently for the fireworks to start.

Joshua, taking it all in.

I seriously stink at fireworks photos but did manage one that's decent.

Hope y'all had a great 4th of July weekend!
