4th of July

Grandma and Grandpa came to visit us for the 4th of July! We were excited to show them our new home and some of the area around Rocklin. Darrin was very excited to find out that Fireworks were legal in Rocklin! He was like a kid in a candy store!

The Big Timer!

On the 4th of July we went to Oma and Lou's house for a barbeque before the fireworks extravaganza at our house! Oma and Lou have a pool and this was Charley's first time swimming. She loved being in the water!

 Thanks for the barbeque Oma and Lou! It was fun!

After our barbeque we headed back to our house so Darrin could set up his fireworks display! We were in for quite a treat! Not only did Darrin buy a large box of fireworks but he also found a 4th of July music channel on Pandora. We hooked up our iphone to a portable speaker in the garage and tada Darrin's firework display could be accompanied by music!

We thought that Charley would fall asleep before the firework show but she was not tired! She stayed up for most of it.  I thought the noise would scare her but I covered her ears and she enjoyed watching the bright colors.
