July 4th with Friends & Family

Pics from our action packed 4th this year - sans Jon. It was really fun to celebrate this day in town and at the beach for a change. We also got to be with Jon's family in the afternoon, and we made a solid effort to make it to fireworks but it just didn't pan out super well. After days as fun as this one, at some point enough is enough. 
Our friends hosted a small brunch pre-parade. I loved seeing all the decorated bikes and scooters all piled up. Never did get the shot I was looking for but this gives an idea.
If you look closely at all these pics you will see how serious Eden and Zion were at this parade. The throngs of people were much more stressful for them than I had anticipated. I don't think either of them cracked a spontaneous smile once! /:

There is that face again, this time on Zi...now if only I can catch Jon in the act.

The whole crew!!

BEACH!!!

The best part of our day by far. We had dragged our feet about it. Jon had talked me out of it saying how incredibly crowded it would be, but the Baileys talked us back into it and were so incredibly kind to actually escort us down to the 'Hole' with them. This was seriously one of my favorite beach days to date. Just pure craziness and fun! I am so grateful to the Baileys for making it happen for us on this day!

There is that smile I LOVE!
The only thing I have to say about this activity is it kind of scared the life out of me and I'm super grateful there were no bonked heads - only beaming smiles the entire time!
