father's day and the fourth

since joey was in zambia on father's day, we celebrated both before, during, and after his trip.

g and pop helped daddy raise money by buying max a flying monkeys tshirt

while joey was gone, we had dinner with my dad and stepmom in the square in decatur. they were having a cowboy festival so after dinner we enjoyed some of the fun!

after joey got home, we went to the movie tavern to see cars 2. happy late father's day!

and on to the 4th of july! what better way to spend these hot summer days then in the pool.

max loves to swim and is quite the little fish. i guess swimwithkyle.com does work :)

showing off his "tricks" with daddy

and finally we enjoyed the lake cities 4th of july festival with our church family. max enjoyed the fireworks and let us know that "i not scared".

i love my family (even if we are hot and sweaty!)
