4th of July

We had a wonderful 4th of July! Shaun had bike duty from noon to 9pm that night. The parade started at 1pm and then we went to the Brooker's house to cool off in their pool and cookout. The boys had a blast on a waterslide they had set up. Here are a few pics from the day...

Shaun working hard (...he really did work hard not long after this pic was taken)...

Mission Supermom : FAIL

Tried to be a super-mom today. Dragged 5 hot sweaty kids to target for a new sprinkler and small blow up pool. Got home all excited to find out the nozzle is missing from our blower-up-thingy (air compressor might be it's real name)...and the sprinkler "sprinkles" all the way to INTO the neighbor's house/car.

Mission Super-mom : FAIL.

Have I ever mentioned how much I hate the 90 heat and high humidity of summer. I do. Especially when neither your car or your house has AC.

A hard day of work (and play!!)...

The work day begins...I cast on a few stitches and thought to myself...what a hard life this is...




After lunch...


One more before we left...


and a few scenery pics...










and my favorite pic of the day...Garrett dancing on a smooshed sand castle...
