4th of July...


The kids enjoyed puppy time before the parade...


Sabrina loved the parade this year...she was waving, clapping, and collecting as much candy as possible:)


Uncle Steve got an awesome kiddie pool for some in between time fun...


Anthony had to work but he joined us as soon as he could for the BBQ and cookie time...


Sabrina was way tired and so we didn't make it to the big fireworks this year but luckily my bro got some pretty nice ones to set off on our own...this one was a little bright for my girl - she fell asleep shortly after this pic and so we decided to call it a day.

Daddy Day!


Happy Father's Day!!!


Two kids who love their daddy...


Sabrina did not want Anthony to leave for work, much tears...

I am so grateful for Anthony and truly appreciate the father that he is to our children.  He loves being with the kids which means so much to me and, of course, so much to them.  Bri is usually sad when she wakes up and Daddy is not there - she has to know if he is at work or at school, but is still sad either way.  Anthony had to work on Father's Day, which was junky, but we still made the most of it and had a pretty good day (other than trying to get Bri to church w/o her daddy). 
We love you Anthony and appreciate all that you do for us.  You take care of us in so many ways and work so hard with school and work to give us a better life.  It's not always easy being a dad - so many pressures and so many looking to you for everything...being a dad is being the hero and that's what you are to us!!!

 To our Father's...we love you too...
