Some 4th of July pics

[NateR]

I meant to post this a couple of days ago, but just got so busy. I got to spend the 4th of July out at Matt's house. We mostly just hung out, played in the pool, watched TV, then set off fireworks when it got dark. It was an awesome day. I didn't get too many pictures, but thought I would share the ones I had.

Hanna wanted me to take this picture of her riding her tricycle around the pool, before I realized that she wasn't supposed to be riding her tricycle around the pool:

For lunch, Matt cooked up some hot dogs over an open fire:

Matt relaxing in the shade just before getting in the pool:

I took a few photos of Matt and the kids playing the in pool before putting on my swimming trunks and getting in myself:





This photo would be perfect for a "create a caption" contest:









Matt was throwing a bean bag back and forth with Hanna:






Matt and Joey get the fireworks ready:

OK, totally discounting the personal awesomeness of the pics, I was amazed at the beanbag pic trailing water and the one after.

I have always had an interest in photography but do not excel at it. You missed your calling, Nate, you've got a great eye.

Psst, Bonnie...over here...

Nathan, that Hanna keeps getting you in trouble.

Great picture of her, and of Matt and Joey. I'm glad you had such a great 4th, Nate.


I don't know if you saw the news story of that little 4 yr.-old that got taken yesterday from Mo. and thankfully found last night, but when I saw her pic, she reminded me of little Hanna except for the brown eyes.

I went back and took another look at that one; it is amazing.

I think this one is my favorite. Looks like poor Joey is unconscious getting the big Matt Hughes body slam.Love it

Pretty talented, no doubt about it.
