Holiday Weekend


It was a fun weekend, with the 4th of July being on Sunday, it gave way for a weekend long party. On Saturday night we went to my parents to enjoy a picnic BBQ and then some little (cheap) fireworks for the kids to enjoy. It was unusually cold and windy so it was hard to get the entertainment to work but we enjoyed ourselves. The kids loved the sparklers, or as Julia would say the sprinklers. They didn't know quite what to do with them when they first got them but they got the hang of it.













Sunday was a nice relaxing day at Church, the actually 4th of July! It was great to feel the spirit of the day on a spiritual level. Watched a 20 minute fireworks show on TV that night.

Monday, Layne had the day off and so spent the day together as a family. Then we left Gramma with all the kids (thanks mom) so we could go to our traditional Bee's Baseball game. It was a good game, (even though they lost) great company and a small fireworks show at the end. A great way to end the holiday weekend!! I love the 4th of July, it's one of my favorite holidays!! I feel so blessed to live in America, Land of the Free and Home of the Brave!!
