Our 24th

Our 24th of July was very busy!! First we went to a big party with Trent and Jenny. Jenny's parents throw a big 24th of July party every year. It swas tons of fun.

Tally with her "treasure" after a treasure hunt

They had a really great swing set that Tally LOVED!

"Raw Egg Horse Ride"
Such a funny thing to watch! The "rider" balances a raw egg on a plastic fork while the "horse" takes them to the finish line. Everytime you drop the egg the horse has to stop.

Tally won a bag of horses from the raffle. She thought they were pretty fantastic!

The jump rope contest (I took the picture right after he quit!!)

Water balloon catch. I only have a picture of the little kids because Ryan and I competed in the adult catch.

At one point in the party Tally went over to the swing set by herself and when came back she looked like this.

That may not look suspicous but when you get a closer look...

THOSE AREN'T HER SHOES!!

Tally has always been a big hit with kids. She has friends everywhere we go. Even older kids are just drawn to her.

Ryan and I competed in the washer toss and the golf ball toss. Which I didn't get pictures of because we were both playing. I did get pictures of the sack race. Ryan took 3rd.
He also competed in tug of war and arm wrestling.
Tally did the ring toss

The party went nearly the whole day. We had fireworks we needed to light so we decided to go we better get home on time to use them. On our way home we invited Jeff and Stacia to come watch and they brought pizza for dinner. Tally was so excited to show Uncle Jeff her horses. She knew he would love them I guess.

Trent and Jenny also showed up later but they didn't stay very long.
