Our 4th of July Weekend.

We started the day with a trip to Urgent Care. I think we should have a frequent visitor card because we go there WAY too often. We left with prescriptions for 4 bottles of medicine for Andy and Ashlyn to get rid of their ear infections and congestion. At least they get sick at the same time so we can just be done with it all at once. Needless to say we canceled our beach plans and spent the afternoon/evening at home.


We had a BBQ on our front porch.

And had our own little firework show. Andy is our Pyro in training. Like Father, Like Son.
On Saturday we had a block party. I think almost every house was represented. It was really neat to have such a great turnout. We have great neighbors!
We had water slides, water balloons, and a parade.Taylor was SO excited to participate in the kid's parade and show off her decorated scooter. Andy and Ashlyn LOVED the water balloons.Trisha and Russ joined the fun.We ended the day with a bonfire, smores, and more fireworks (and a visit from the sheriff, apparently our new city is a no firework city).

Fun Times!

I love kodak shots, and the one of your family walking away is really cute! I've been trying to blog for a couple weeks now, but rarely add pics, i'm horrible at it. I will keep trying though. Your family looks like they're doing really well. Hopefully we can keep in touch through "The Blogspot"- ya gotta love it!
