4th of July weekend

I love holidays..especially holidays where my hubby has time of of work and we get to do fun stuff :) This 4th of July weekend was lots of fun. We had lots of time to relax and just enjoy being together and with friends. Friday night John made some really good cheddar bacon burgers then we hung out in the hottub. Saturday we hung around the house all day and relaxed...anyone who knows me knows that I am not a big fan of staying in all day..but every now and then its nice to relax. That night my dad cooked us all a really good dinner...fried rice with sasuage, shrimp and peppers..it was so good. Thats the other thing I love about holidays..good food!! Sunday morning we went to church and then John and the kids and I went to Panera for luch then shopped around walmart. Sunday night we had another yummy dinner then John did some fireworks for Kaylee..she loved them..she really loved that she was allowed to hold a sparkler haha..we were able to sit in the driveway and see lots of big fireworks, its nice to be able to see them from home and not have to fight the crowds downtown or at the beach!! On Monday we took the kids out to Hugenot to play at the beach with our great friends the Slegers...we spent most of the day out there and had a blast!! Kaylee waiting patiently for the fireworks!!Kaylee and Daddy doing sparklersThe night wouldn't be complete if there were no tears!!
