Well I know that I didn’t get this posted on the 4th, but that was the initial hope. At least I had good intentions right! So I hope that everyone had a happy and safe 4th of July. I hope you had a moment to reflect on the sacrifices that have been made in order for us to all enjoy this beautiful country that we live in with all the freedoms that we have. I truly am grateful and proud to be an American.
Of course it wouldn’t be much of a post if I didn’t put pictures of beautiful Joy so here they come. We really enjoyed a wonderful day yesterday. So here is Joy in one of her 4th of July outfits. I know you’re like one of them! Does this child need more than one 4th of July outfit. I say yes! Hello, she spits up and drolls on tons of her clothes. And you all have to admit, what girl could have too many adorable outfits! Especially this one. She also had a fun time when Grandma put her on the rocking horse for the first time. She reached right up and put her hands on the little handles. It was pretty cute.
We had a BBQ of course and Lorna, the kids, mom, and Anita (Dave’s cousin, up for a wedding) were all here. I think we had a good time. The kids love to find my stuffed animals around the house, so I know the snowman isn’t exactly 4th of Julyish, but that’s alright!
We had a great time with everyone here and certainly enjoyed the fun display of fireworks put on by all of our neighbors.
