Museum & the 4th

One of the first fun places we found in Portland was their children's museum.  Tori and James were thrilled to find out that Portland had a museum just like Iowa and loved exploring all the new stuff.  A big favorite of James' was the water room.
Above - it was fun to have Dad and Grandma at the museum with us. 
Below - Ellie spent most of her time sleeping through the fun.
Here are all the kids in their 4th of July outfits.  It was a lot of fun to get to spend the 4th with my cousin and her kids, eating good food and watching fireworks.  Tori and James thought the sparklers were really cool and I loved getting to spend a holiday with family.
 Trying to play a little baseball before fireworks on the 4th. James had to try out his new mit.
