Happy 4th of July!

We have had a fun 4th of July weekend! We’ve been much more social than usual – which is good for us!

Friday night we went over to my brother’s and had a mini welcome home Miles get together. (I even cooked for everyone – felt oh so grown up). Got some good cuddle time with the adorable baby. But no pics.

Saturday, Kevin mowed in the morning, I had lunch with a good friend, and then we went down to our friends Matt, Paula', & Bryce’s that evening to swim and have a cook out. That was fun!

Sunday, we went to church and took it easy that afternoon. That evening we headed up to visit with some friends in Plano to swim and cookout. They were very sweet to have us and invited us to go with them to watch fireworks. We thought about going but were worried it would really be too late to keep Will out. Maybe next year. However, we could not have planned it if we tried but managed to get to see the fireworks on our way home coming down the tollway. My way to do it – in the air conditioned car! After they we had passed them, Will kept saying…I seed it! I seed it! So cute.

Then this morning, we headed over to the LH parade! It was so cute and reminded me of the parades in my hometown growing up. Paula and Bryce went with us and the boys seemed to really enjoy it. At first we had to wait a bit for it to start and they saw this huge open field as a huge temptation for running free! Then they found this spot of dirt and decided to pick it up and play in it. Will isn’t smiling but I was pretty proud that I got this good of a picture of them! Impossible to get a good one of all 4 of us – but this is the best we got. The 4 of us enjoy lots of fun play dates! The parade was starting – Will was excited to see the big fire truck that was in the front of the parade! Paula and Bryce were excited, too! The Tookers in our red, white, and blue! Will loves fire trucks! About half way through the parade he kind of looked at us and said…more fire truck? Aw. Unfortunately, there was just this one. Kids could decorate their bikes and ride in the parade – so fun! Will behaved so well through the whole thing – I was pleasantly surprised! A cute picture of my two favorite men after the parade. Love them! Hope you all enjoyed your holiday weekend, too!
