Fourth of July

We celebrated the Fourth of July with our great friends, the Auderer's, at their house in Ankeny.  Michelle and I took all of the kids to the pool while Matt and Travis went to check out a new brewery that opened in Ankeny.  It was a win for everyone.  The kids had so much fun playing together again at the pool.  Michelle and I enjoyed being able to catch up while the kids swam.  I even ran into Kaylee's kindergarten teacher at the pool! 

We originally planned to go the fireworks but the kids were having so much fun and we didn't feel like driving (since Ankeny doesn't do fireworks on the 4th), we ended up staying at their house and the kids played outside.  We were able to see some fireworks from various people setting them off.

We stayed overnight and headed home the next morning after breakfast.  It was a great way to celebrate and spend some time with wonderful friends!!
