The 4th

We had an absolutely wonderful 4th of July this year!  We all had so much fun, and I couldn't have asked for a better way to celebrate the holiday.  Our family of 3 competed in the first ever Lawson Family Fun 4th of July Tournament.  The events were: bean bag toss, remote control car race, stomp rocket accuracy, sprinkler fun, soccer, baseball, ring toss, and frisbee. We started off the morning with the bean bag toss.  It was a close competition, but Jake ultimately came out on top!

 Next, was a little racing.  Our engines were ready and we were ready to race!  Surprisingly, Mommy took the top finish in this competition.

Next was stomp rocket launch.  This very easily was the toughest of all evens.  I got lucky and took the prize in this one.

Next, it was time to cool off a little for spinkler fun.  We all had fun in the spinklers and all agreed that we tied for this competition...

Our day wouldn't have been complete without a little team sports.  Jake is our ultimate soccer star and he took the prize in soccer.

Our baseball game was really close, and once again we decided that we all earn a victory!

After a heated game of ring toss where Daddy came out the victor, it was time for the tie-breaker frisbee throw.  Jake was AMAZING and hit our target tree dead on!  He won the overall competition which won him the grand prize of a new Spiderman plate and book.  Just in case you're suspicous of scores, here's the official score sheet from Lawson July 4th Family Fun Day...

After a much deserved nap and great dinner, we headed to Milburn Park for the Cedar Park festivities and fireworks.  We met the Davises there and had a wonderful time enjoying the celebration.  The fireworks were incredible and a great conclusion to the perfect day!

Chloe, Sophia, and Jake set and ready for the show to begin!
