A happy 1st 4th of July

This past weekend was so much fun with Evan. The 4th of July is always spent with family and friends at Heritage Lake and this year we got to bring Evan. Josh said he got a little misty eyed as he carried Evan down the steps to the dock for the first time as he has so many great memories of his childhood playing and skiing at the lake. And now it is his son's turn to explore the water and learn to swim, ski, and more.
Evan loves the water! Even though it was slightly chilly, he stayed in and floated in his raft and almost fell asleep to the waves!!
On the 5th we took him to the Symphony on the Prairie for the Patriotic Tribute and fireworks and again he was a champ! We kept him up late and he watched his first fireworks and loved them. He wasn't afraid of the loud booms. We had a blast with him. We look forward to the next year!
Here's a few pictures from the weekend.
