We started the morning by going to Sunrise Cafe for breakfast. It was fantastic. Dan set up our two man tent in the backyard so Kenna could play in it. Ryleigh liked it too. I did get kinda stuffy in it. Thumper sat in the shade right outside the door. Either he was protecting the girls or just wanted shade. I think it was the latter.
Dan cooling off in the pool. He had just finished putting up new exterior lights by our back doors. He was tired of the mason jar looking lights that were already on the house.
We had a neighborhood party that evening since so many of our neighbors were staying in town because gas prices are so high. There was a bounce house and small pool for the kids. They had water balloons and a volleyball net set up. We had a bbq and a bike parade. Kenna decorated that hat all by herself. It turned out to be a really nice day. And we were able to get to know our neighbors a little better.
We were watching fireworks and Ryleigh woke up from the sounds of the screamers. She liked watching the lights and didn't cry once. There was too much to see to cry. We were out until 11pm. I gave the girls baths before bed and boy were they tired.
Everyone brought a small amount of fireworks so combined we had plenty. And there were illegal ones going off all around us. So we had our small show and every once in a while would see big ones up in the sky. It was lots of fun. Thumper didn't like the sound of the big fireworks. He kept barking at them.

Looks like you guys had a fun weekend! Fun pictures too.
Sounds like a great weekend. Nice sock lines, Dan!
Those aren't tan lines... that comes from playin too much soccer. My shin guards have polished my shins nicely . So now no more hair grows there anymore.
hmm... maybe I should wear shin guards more often.
