4th of July

We had a fun but low-key 4th this year.  We started out the morning at our ward's annual Pancake Breakfast at the park and had a nice time chatting with all of our friends.  Then, the girls both crashed and slept for a VERY long time, so we did too! ;)  Then, it was time for a late start on our bike ride to the beach with my parents.

Libby got a new bike seat and Lexi took over the trailer (Libby let us know it was hers but that she was letting Lexi use it!).  Both seemed to love the set-up and we had a nice ride from our usual spot.

 We ended up at Doheny and it was packed.  And COLD!  No sun all day on the 4th of July - how crazy is that?!?  But Libby still had fun playing in the sand, as always.

(I don't know what this crazy jut-out-the-bottom-jaw smile is all about lately, but she sure loves doing it!)

 Lexi enjoyed the beach from outside of her carseat for once!  There are a few perks to a cloudy day at the beach, I guess.

 LIBBY!

 I loved her cute little "My first 4th of July" outfit my friends at work got for her.  She was a crowd-stopper all day long! 

 That night we watched fireworks with our friends at Mission Viejo Lake.  What a fun night!

Here's the gang - the Changs, the Crocketts, and us.  Adults - 6, kids - 5 1/2.  Only a couple weeks till the kids tie up the score, then who knows what'll happen?!?
