4th of July Extended Weekend

For the 4th of July we (as always) went to Connersville to stay with Chris' family. And after the 4th, Chris' mom and Claire came to spend the night with us! It was a lot of fun. Chris loves the 4th, and he always does a great job putting on a fireworks show for us. I only captured a few of the fountains; I wasn't quite quick enough on the draw to get shots of the big boomers! Since pictures speak far better than words, here we go!!!

Sleepy time!

Well, that's all for now. It's been a long, fun, and tiring weekend so I think I'm going to rest for about a week! Of course, now it's time to get organized for our vacation in a few weeks. We've decided on Myrtle Beach, mostly because Chris' best friend Adam lives there and asked Chris to play in a golf tournament with him. Should be fun!

It looks like you had a great weekend, and Chris did a wonderful job with the fireworks!!! Thanks for sharing the pictures, and I can't wait to see some of your vacation. Relax until then...you deserve it.

Glad you had a great visit and the fireworks spectacular was a success. Chris looks like he is really moving on those training wheels!
Love your new car. Our "sort-of-new" car is black with a tan interior too. You should bring it over, they could be friends!
Also, what do you think about playing volleyball this fall. You-know-who called me yesterday to tell me that she wanted to play, but of course said I should find enough people for a team. Go figure!
