4th of July Holiday Weekend

It's been a busy weekend.

We started off by getting the yard mowed. Thankfully, the hubby was able to get our push mower running since our riding mower decided that it was done with mowing yards. Our oldest got some practice at push mowing. (He's not thrilled he's not getting to "drive" around the yard, but I'm thrilled it got mowed.)

Saturday we headed to my parents to have a cook-out. The kids got to have fun making tie-dyed t-shirts, some of which came out really cool, and us adults got a chance to do a little visiting. As you can see from the picture all the kids (and my sister-in-law) were enjoying hamming it up for the camera in their new t-shirts.

It was a beautiful day. We stayed out on my parents back deck for most of the afternoon - such a change from July 4th's in prior years when it was too hot to be outdoors. We all enjoyed good food and company and had a little celebration for my brother and sister-in-law who celebrated there twelfth wedding anniversary on the 4th.

No fireworks for us this year. It's too much excitement for our little man to handle, especially on top of already having a full day out and about. Overall, it's been a nice holiday weekend.
