Fireworks family and fun

The days are full with the energy that surrounds us from the little ones. Noah, 5 and Olivia, 4 keep us hopping. Today is 'The Transformer' movie for the boys, the girls are joining Jen, Karen's BFF from high school and her two nieces Ally and Reagan. We're doing a tea party. Should be fun........there will be a trip to Michael's and Archiver's first.

Olivia made pies with grandma, her baby pumpkin pie is next to the big one. Noah loves to hole up in the computer room and play with his storm troppers figurines.

Great grandma and grandpa Carnes (G-ma and G-pa 'horses') came to eat homemade chicken and noodles with us. There were some mild fireworks last night, which caused a ton of excitement.

Lightning bugs were rampant in the backyard prompting a trip to the dollar store today to get a bug house so we'll have a place to put them.

Pray for a move to Ottumwa, that would put them within 2 hours of me, Glory Glory Hallelujah, would I love that!!!
