What A Blast

Happy 4th of July!
Many of you may not know this about me, but the 4th of July ranks right up there with Christmas as far as one of my favorite holidays, and this year has just quadrupled that feeling.  Watching my babies as they saw fireworks for the very first time was magical!  
Connor kept squealing and his squeals then turned to a few "oh my goodnesses", then those turned to two beautifully huge brown eyes staring at what must have been one of the most amazing sights he has ever seen.  The whole way home he must have said, "those were some good fireworks" about a zillion times.  
Jordyn was unbelievable. She stood with her blue eyes fixed straight ahead and her little finger pointing to the fireworks.  She kept saying "wow" and "Dow" which means light in Arabic, All the while dancing to the music in the background.  
It really is incredible to be able to live these experiences for the first time again. I like them so much better this time around.  
And honey, happy 6 year anniversary of the day you asked me to marry you! (only one of the greatest days of my life) And happy 5 year anniversary of the day we moved into our home.  I love you!

oh i totally forgot! 6 years ago yesterday i desperately tried to get one good fireworks shot! ;P

You got a great shot. And it has been hanging proudly in my dining room ever since! The best wedding gift I got!
