About Me

A mom of 4, I blog very rarely, and use this mostly for future memory of when I forgot to capture these events in a baby book somewhere.

4th of July

Scott worked his first moonlighting shift up here from noon to 5. Right before he left Will asked to see his favorite show, which is Star Wars, so we watched Episode 6. Towards the end he looked up at papa and said, "I wanna go to sleep just a little on you" and then he fell asleep (notice the matching outfits. Will had to change once he saw what papa was wearing).
We met Scott at his aunt and uncle's house for homemade icecream, yummy, then we invited them to come along with us to the Homewood Fourth of July Festival. This was super fun. They closed down 2 streets in downtown Homewood, and had lots of kid carnival rides and inflatables set up. They sold tickets for those, 1 - 4 tickets each, and they also had pony rides and horse/carriage rides. It was overcast, but never rained, so the weather was very nice.
This is Will with Scott's cousin, Rob (Will's new best friend)


This is Rob again and Aunt Janet giving K some very watered down free lemonade.




There were some people selling baby beagles. They were so cute!

The hoola hoop contest. My kids so should have won.

Kirstine loved the fireworks at first, but got bored quickly, so papa took her. Will HATES fireworks so we were already back to our car by the time they started with our escape already planned. Scott took him into the car and he LOVED THEM! It was so nice being able to watch fireworks finally. He was so cute yelling out what colors and shapes they were, and which ones he wanted to see again.

Thursday night was fun, but Friday night was much better!
