Happy Fourth of July


We had a very long Fourth this year. We started off the day with yard work at 8 AM. I mowed the lawn while Jimmy edged and used the weed eater. Then, we took the boys for a boat ride on the lake. It was Parker's first boat ride and he was a little apprehensive. Both boys did not enjoy the loud noise of the motor. As soon as Jimmy picked up speed they curled up tight next to me and fell asleep.

Afterwards, we made our second trip to Wal-Mart for the day and picked a few items we needed for a barbecue we were invited to that evening. Then, we showered, dressed and headed out to our friend's house for hot dogs and hamburgers. We had a wonderful time visiting and eating!

We ended the night watching the city's fireworks display. From the looks on our face in the picture, you can tell that we were ready to call it a night. Connor and Parker fell asleep during the car ride home and have been sleeping since.

Happy Fourth of July!
