Happy 4th of July
Last week was a very difficult week for my family. My cousin Jason passed away leaving many of us in shock & so very hurt. Jason was my second cousin from the same family to pass away in the last two years so it was very difficult for everyone. Needless to say, after a funeral on Sunday we needed a pick me up. Since fireworks were banned this year due to the drought we had to get creative in what we were going to do for the 4th! Since most of our friends have kids we decided what better to do than to put on a parade. The kids had so much fun decorating their wagons & waving at everyone who passed by their parade route. :) It was just fun! We enjoyed homemade ice cream, cobbler, flad cakes, bbq & hotdogs and so many other 4th of July goodies. We are blessed to have great friends in our life and can't wait for Lainey to be here and get to be in the mix! What a blessing all these kiddos will be to her. This week Brian is off work so we are planning to relax & enjoy one of our three weeks off this summer. We are so tired at this point we may not leave the house, but it will be nice to just enjoy some time off. Have a great rest of the week! Hope you all had a HAPPY 4th OF JULY!
