Trip to MO (5) - Happy 4th of July and Everything Else!

Just like last year we took pictures of the kiddos in their red, white, and blue attire. It was nothing short of a miracle to have gotten as many cute photos as I did. We had a fun day of eating giant steaks, watching fireworks, and playing Balderdash.
And finally, here are some other photos from the week that I liked, but couldn't find a good place for anywhere else. I'm positive you have seen enough of my family to sufficiently hold you over until next July or maybe forever. :)
Mom, Dad, Adam, Jenny, Emma and Eric....we had a blast spending the week with you! Thanks for making it so fun. We love you!

Ali, I LOVE all your pictures and I LOVE the way you put them all together! It is amazing that those kids' shots turned out considering the chaos of the posing!! We had a fabulous week with all of you around and I loved how Emma and Benny and Natalie all were with each other. I miss all of you already!

Those are awesome pictures! So glad you posted all of them. :) Love seeing your cute family, and glad you had fun. The pool ones of Nat are so so cute. And who cares how many you post-it's your family history, people can skip over them if they want, but you want the documentation! :) LOVE YOU!

I loved looking at all the pics! You can never post too many! I also love seeing pics of your family, they haven't changed much! Natalie is getting so big. The pool pictures are too cute. The 4th of July pics with all 3 kids turned out great. That is the hardest part is getting everyone to look at the same time, but you did really good! The birthday party is also a great tradition. I am sure Ben loves having two parties, who wouldn't? Glad you were able to spend some time hiking too. That looks like so much fun!
PS- Annetta is taking the boys pics tonight! SO excited! :)

Ali-You take awesome pictures! Who would mind seeing so many shots of such cute kiddos? I love Natalie's rosy cheeks when she is sleeping during the hiking experience, and your brothers' faces are priceless! They look just the same to me, just a little more grownup. :) The picture of Ben "holding" the rock is so cool! Your niece is such a cutie..love her curls! Looks like you all had a great time.

I feel so out of touch in the blog world! It was fun to get caught up with what you guys are doing. The pictures from the wedding were great. You look beautiful! I love that color on you. It was also fun to see your family pics in MO. I'm sure you had a great time and it looks like you guys kept really busy. :) Ben and Natalie are so cute too. I love the shots of Natalie swimming. :)
