Independence Day ....

... what a BLAST! On Wednesday night, we went to the Moose fireworks. On Thursday night, we went to Uncle Billy's for the annual Craddock Neck 4th of July get together. Billy and Cheryl (and her son, daughter-in-law, and granddaughter Nicole), Parke and Jac (and new baby Bailey), Gayle and David, Amanda and Taylor (and baby-to-be), Janet and Steve, Maggie, Mason (and friend), Terry and Kelly, Craig and Michelle, Hannah, and Alexis were all there. We wish Carrie and Chris could have been here! And, we wish Jackson and Addie's Daddy, Grannddaddy, and Uncle Bret could have been here too .... Daddy had to go back to Montana and Granddaddy and Uncle Bret have been working hard on the farm.

Waiting patiently for fireworks at the Moose on July 3rd
Oh boy, oh boy! Jackson played some tunes on the radio while we waited.
And Addie tried to convince Granddaddy to let her drive his truck. 
All set for the show!
The fireworks hadn't even started and Jackson had his ears covered. 
July 4th ... Jackson went for a drive with his pal Nicole. 
Meanwhile, Adelyn meets her baby cousin, Bailey! Bailey is 8 weeks old and so very sweet.
Mama and her boy. 
Jackson and cousin Hannah. Summer friends!
All decked out in red, white and blue!
Nana and her grandchildren. 
Love these kids!
I think Great Nana and Great Granddaddy love them too. This couple has three great grandchildren and  another on the way!
Cousins watching the Craddock Neck fireworks. That's Mason's friend  hiding from the camera. 
Fireworks over Craddock Creek.
Jackson asked cousin Parke to label this cupcake 'Jackson Mills Matthews' so no one would eat it. Sure enough, it was waiting for him at the end of the fireworks show!

Summer = Virginia!

We arrived on the Shore on June 22nd and it has been nonstop fun ever since. Here are some photos from the week Addie and Jackson were at Nana's and Grannddaddy's while Mama and Daddy went on a trip.

Playing with some fun different toys.
Mario Kart ... video games are a treat we don't have in Montana
Riding the combine with Uncle Bret ... future farmer?!
A kiss from Granddaddy!
Flying high on the swing.
Addie has her swing too, and a beautiful view of the creek. 
Jackson went to Bible School at Craddockville Church.
