Happy 4th of July/Birthday!

We celebrated Parker's birthday today with his Grandma & Grandpa O. Since we haven't found a house to move into yet we aren't really having an official birthday party for him. Kinda worked out better because he gets two small parties, two cakes, two special days. It is also the 4th of July. Parks decided to start off with a little pool time.....
After that it was time for presents. Someone decided it would be a good idea to give this boy a jar of change. He loved it! However, he is not the best at cleaning it up.
The theme of the day was Pirates. Parks is way into Pirates these days, he sings about them and walks around with a sword telling everyone to "walk the plank" or "I'll throw you into the 7 seas".
He got some cool cars and some Lego's too.
Trick candles on the birthday cake. Not sure he quite understood...he just kept blowing them out.
He had a great time celebrating his birthday!
Later in the early evening we decided to do a few fireworks, sparklers, smoke bombs, and those snappy things you throw on the ground. This was the first year we did fireworks with Parks and he really liked it.

We went back out again after dark and did some more and stood at the end of Grandma & Grandpa C's driveway while daddy lit off some cool ones. We could also see some big professional fireworks off in the distance.
