Our Wet N' Wild 4th of July!

We had planned on having a few friends over for a pool party for our 4th of July celebration, but the weather had other plans. The monsoons have arrived and brought with it much needed rain. It was a pretty exciting storm...it blew our grill over and the ping pong table ended up in the middle of the yard. Luckily nothing was damaged beyond repair. All of the kids were pretty excited...we don't get a lot of crazy weather here...sunny days day after day do get boring after all! ;) We managed to get about 30 minutes of swimming in before the storm really hit, so the kids watched a movie and we decided to eat inside since everything was soaked on the porch! This was definitely one 4th of July our boys' won't soon forget!




Fun in the pool before the storm...








Here comes the rain...time to get out!


The strong winds ripped a strap off our seat cushion so Weston had to rescue it before it blew to the next neighborhood! ;)


Downpour...


Troy is VERY excited we finally got rain!


We always wanted an infinity pool...not quite how we imagined it though...


Time for some good food!


Cutie pies Trey and London


Cupcakes for dessert!



Things eventually dried out and our family went to the "A" Mountain fireworks show with Uncle Matt, Uncle Jon, Kayla, and Ethan.

We've got our popcorn and we're all set for the show!

Crazy Stewart Family!

Great fireworks!


Happy 4th of July everyone!
