this july 4th was a special one. not only were we celebrating our country, but we were celebrating my parents return to this country! andrew and the boys woke up early to save us a spot at the beach. the rest of us joined them for a perfect day in the sun.

how i spent most of my time at the beach
after the beach we headed back to ladera to shower. then it was off to the fireworks show. this is the 4th year in a row we have gone to the ladera ranch fireworks show, and it never dissapoints. it was a fun-filled day with family and the perfect way to celebrate my parents return. i love this holiday!
