Our Independence Day Weekend was full of family and fun!
J's parents came into town for the fourth. Or really they came in because it might be a while before they can get up here, with Greg having surgery on his foot.
So we decided to kick the long weekend off the way we kick everything off, by eating! So some Don Jose's, my favorite Mexican restaurant, it was. After dinner we met up with my fam and all watched the Hach's fireworks. This time Cannon did not even stop to watch the fireworks, he was way too busy playing with Hunter and the really cool flashlights my Mom brought... Cannon and Hunter playing make the Capri Sun straw fly at the fireworks!
Friday, J finally got his father's day gift, which I decided was also his birthday present! The only problem was that when we went to Lowe's the grill he wanted was not put together. Of course J is not going to put it together and the guy said it was a no go for having it ready on the Fourth... We could not decide, but the guy caved and J got his grill. Dinner was wonderful! Steaks, shrimp, corn, asparagus, sweet potatoes, and I even made "the best chocolate cake ever!" After that we just waddled down the street to watch fireworks with the neighbors.
The rest of the weekend was just relaxing and eating! The two things I do best! The boys (J, Papa, and Nathan) did build a pitching mound on Sunday, it only took them 3 or 4 trips to Lowe's to get it right. After all that hard work J got a sty and decided to take MY MOM's advice and put a potato on it. As of Wednesday he STILL has the sty.
