What a Weekend

Our family a had nice, relatively quiet 4th of July weekend. We helped paint some of the newly finished rooms at my parents house, Ben got to play some golf, and we spent some time with friends - what more could you ask for?

We kind of invited ourselves over to James and Shari's house on the 4th. We initially thought that more of our friends would be available to get together that evening, but this year everyone except our two families were busy with other events! But, we had fun, ate really great food and had a nice relaxed evening together. The weather was amazing as well - a 4th of July with next to no sweat is a nice treat.

The pool was a big hit with Noah, even if he still hates to get his head wet.


Levi, on the other hand, LOVED the fire hose - but accidentally started spraying himself in the face.


If you're a serious swimmer, you must wear goggles.






Shari treated us to yummy lemon cupcakes with lemon cream cheese frosting and fresh fruit. They were so good, I forgot to take a picture before I had eaten half of it - oops. :-)


Towards the end of the evening, after Levi was asleep, the three older boys became infatuated with cell phones. They all HAD to have one and they were all busy "talking" and "taking pictures".


On Friday, my sister and Rylee came out to the farm for most of the day. It was wonderful to see her again!
