It is pretty amazing that the 4th of July was already a week ago! This summer is flying by and before we know it school will be starting. I have been slacking quite a bit on the blog updates so I figured I bet get back to it. This year was another 4th of July to go down in the memory books! We had such a good time with many firsts again (seems to be a pattern this summer)! The day started with participating in the kiddie parade in downtown Wayzata. We didn’t plan soon enough so our bike/scooter/stroller weren’t decorated in RWB but the girls and James were in in the holiday’s festive colors! Then we met up with the Madsons and Grandma Sharon for a BBQ at a park and playground and then spent the rest of the afternoon at a man-made pond. What a great way to stay cool on such a hot afternoon. The girls LOVED it and James was such an amazing trooper all day! We were gone from 9am – 6:30 and he never cried once! He was having a blast playing in the shade on the blanket and people watching! Then while Brian worked (boo) at home and James was in bed sleeping for the evening, the girls and I ventured out to the Lakeville fireworks. I didn’t think I would end up walking 1.5 miles both ways pulling almost 90 lbs in a wagon to see the fireworks but…I did!! Kate, Annie and I met the Madsons again and just like the past two years ended the evening with popcorn and fireworks. Needless to say we were all very pooped when we got home (at 11:30!). The girls went right to bed and I soaked my sore feet. What a great day we had celebrating America’s Independence!!!
