A Family Fourth

This weekend has been super low key. I have to say that although I'm extremely grateful for our freedom and all that the fourth of July holiday celebrates, this is by far my least favorite holiday. Just knowing that Dave always has to work while everyone else is at the beach or lake is really no fun at all! We did do a last minute birthday dinner roundup yesterday though . . . and once we were home Dave was back to work! ;(

Today, however, we have enjoyed lots of family time. We went to church and then enjoyed seeing my dad too. He drove all of the way here just to install electricity into our shed/playhouse! Honestly, it is amazing at what he knows how to do. From digging the ditch to running the wire and then installing lights and electrical outlets . . . I'm almost sure that there isn't anything my dad can't install or repair! So now Savannah can enjoy her playhouse since we can put a fan out there and she'll be able to see too. Plus once she's a bit older she can have a little easy bake oven of her own.

Preston's new sign for "feed me more, mama" He points the empty fork at me and waits for the food to be put on. Hey, at least we're not still feeding him baby food with a spoon at every meal. He loves the fork!!



This picture cracks me up! The kids were in awe of Pawpaw on his tractor!!

This afternoon we enjoyed some good ol BBQ and let the kids play outside too. Of course Preston enjoyed his swing and Savannah was able to play in the sprinkler, a first for her!
