4th of July

I'm awfully behind with the updating around here, mostly because I can't keep up with all of the summer fun we've been having. For now, a belated 4th of July post...

Eric's parents graciously allowed us to invade their house on the harbor again this year, so we spent the all of the 3rd and the morning of the 4th languishing along the beach. The neighborhood always has fireworks on the 3rd, and this year's show was especially fantastic.


I take a picture of this house every time we visit. I think the owners expect it by now.










We had a great, jolly feast the evening of the 4th with all four of our parents, Derek and Sara, Brent, Danny and the boys, and then the two of us spent the night with Brent & Danny. The grown-ups played a loooong board game, Derek held his first sparkler while we watched fireworks at the end of the block, poor Caleb battled a terrible cough, and we all celebrated another fine holiday spent together.
