4th of July fun and Jason's accident

On July 4th, Kayle and I got to have lots of fun celebrating at the big festival in Snoqualmie Ridge...

... she got to play on the fun bouncy castles...

 ... and eat lots of yummy treats

After we left the festival, we picked up Jason who was working, and then headed up to our friends house for more fun.  There were lots of us all ready for the fun.  We set up all our fireworks... BBQ'd the meat and got ready to celebrate.

The boys were enjoying the evening...

... and so were the kids!  We got a ready to let off some  fireworks.  We had all the kids set up in chars a good distance from the fireworks.

The little kids got to enjoy some sparklers.


We let off some hot air balloons.


Everything was going well until Jason had a terrible accident.  He was lighting a firework and before he had a chance to move his head, it went off in his eye.  We rushed him to the hospital.  He was then transferred to the West Coast Trauma Center in Seattle.  Once we were there, we had to wait while they looked at his eye.
We were at the hospital all night.  Jason got to sleep on and off.  I sat up all night people watching!  There were so many people in the hospital with terrible injuries.


So many of our friends were so supportive... we got some amazing flowers!
