4th of July Weekend!

What a wonderful weekend we had. It was jam packed filled but it was a lot of fun. Friday we took the kids to their first Moondog's game. They had a blast! We went with Auntie Alli and some of our friends. It was a great way to start all the festivities of the weekend.

Saturday we spent the day at the lake. It wasn't as beautiful as we had hoped for. It seems that every time Nick and I invite friends to the lake it rains, is cloudy or is cold. We made the most of our day though. We had some friends come out for the afternoon along with my sister Patsy, Sean, Alli and my mom. We were able to go on a lot of boat rides and all the kids had a blast. Saturday night we watched the fireworks on the lake. It is so amazing to be sitting on the boat and watching the fireworks. I wish I could get a picture of all the boats that are out with us. There is over 100 boats at the minimum watching the fireworks. It is such a great site. This year the people that put it on also had WWII Planes fly over before the fireworks. It was an amazing site and the kids had a blast watching the planes. It was a late night but the kids all fell asleep on the boat during the fireworks and then again on our ride back to town.

Sunday we spent the day at the pool. It was a gorgeous day to be outside and poolside! B is quite the swimmer and loves the pool. E fell in last year so we are still working past her fears. C thinks water is the best thing ever. He would sleep in the pool if he could.

Now we are getting back to work. This coming weekend we will be celebrating Grandma Ruth's 90th birthday at the lake. It will be so much fun to see all the Aunts, Uncles, Cousins and friends!
