A side note to start on is that we got our official orders this week so it is official, we are out of here in 8 weeks!! Holla! We are coming home to the US!!! Woot Woot!!
So anyway, back to the 4th celebrations!
THis is a picture of us in our neighborhood for a morning parade by the fire dept and Security Forces and Scouts. The boys loved getting the candy.
Then me and the boys headed to the fun day here on base while Joseph put Arya down for a nap and avoided the crowds :)
The boys had a blast
They had their first ride on the Swings and LOVED it!
All Smiles!
Weeeee!
That evening we hosted a 4th of July Block party. It was so fun and a ton of people from our ward showed up and a few neighbors. I love party's. I forgot I loved them so much!
This is the Baumgartens and Sarah Weyland in this picture. Emi is a Young woman in our ward who is the Baby Queen. Arya and the boys like her a lot. I got her to babysit Saturday night......This was my first time hiring a babysitter for an evening while here in Germany. I usually switch off with another mom but this worked out nicely.

I love the fourth of July! Next to Christmas it is one of my favorite holidays!
Watching her first fireworks.... She loves playing with her tounge and making lots of noises.
I love fireworks too!
We hope you had a good Fourth of July!
I am so grateful to have my family and friends here. I love my country and the more I learn the more I want to stand up for my freedoms that I have been blessed with and fight for them. I read about the title of Liberty in the Book of Mormon here and I want to do everything in my power to protect the freedoms I have for my family and my Country.
God Bless the USA!
