In the midst of the busy holiday weekend, David and I went to a wedding reception on Saturday night and had the best time! We had our most favorite babysitter come over and watch Landon while we went to the wedding reception. Katie lives just 2 houses down from us and she is absolutely wonderful with kids. We love her! It was a late night for David and I, so Katie put Landon to bed for us. The next morning I went into his room to tell him good morning and he was so upset to see me. He said, "Where's Katie?...No mom! I want Katie!" Ha!Now back to the July 4th fun...
Every year for the July 4th our sub division puts on a wonderful fireworks show and our cul-de-sac has a block party where we all get together and eat, talk, and watch the fireworks. It's always a good time for everyone that comes!
Landon and several other boys enjoyed riding down our driveways--they had the best time and thankfully no one got hurt!

The kids also played in the water!
David and another one of our neighbors were in charge of the grill.
This is our friend Diana and her sweet little guy! I enjoyed holding him and all of his chunkiness!
This is Landon's friend Luke...he calls Landon, "La La". When Luke was learning how to talk he couldn't say Landon, so he would call Landon "La La"...and it stuck. Luke's family still at times refers to Landon as "La La" and Landon thinks is so funny!
This was the only time Landon sat down the entire evening. He was ready for the fireworks to start, however, I think he was up and running around again before they started. He pretty much just sat there long enough for me to snap a picture.

These boys took a quick break from playing to enjoy the fireworks! For the most part, Landon is still in the stage where he plays side by side with other kids, but this night he actually played with the other boys. It was so fun to watch him pretend and really engage in their little games.

We are incredibly blessed to have such wonderful neighbors that really care about each other and look out for each other.
