Fourth Of July Weekend

Hi ya'll. Well the fourth of July has come and gone once again. It dosent seem like it should be this late in the year, and yet it is. Isn't it funny how when you are a kid time seems to go sooooo slow and now that we are adults the time just FLYS. Well it was a pretty interesting weekend. By the way FIREWORKS ARE LOOOOOUD!!!!!!!! Holy cow are they loud. On Friday night we went over to Jay's cousins house for some hamburgers, hot dogs and such. Well when the sun went down they started to light off some fireworks in the driveway. Ok, I LITERALLY fell outta my lawnchair. Scared the living crap outta me. Josie ran up to me and said "Oh mom hurry and take your ears off." Usually I just turn down my volume if things get too loud.....not this time, I took my ears off and they stayed off till well after they had ended the fireworks. Ok for those of you who are laughing their butt off cause I fell outta the lawnchair I want you to know that I am blowing rasberries at you as we speak.



Saturday started as a rainy, yucky day. We were out REALLY late on Friday night so everyone in the house slept till noon, which was really nice for a change. Then we got up and ate some lunch and hung around in our jammies till about 4 when we got a call from our pastor sayin they got a bunch of fish that they were fryin and asked us to come on up. So we all got dressed and went up there. Then we went to the fireworks in Effingham later that evening and since it was a misty evening they totally SUCKED! (pls excuse my french). They were awful!!! The kids, who arent very picky at all, thought they were just blah. They said the fireworks we set off at daddy's cousins were more exciting. I dont know if it was the weather or a lower budget this year but it wasn't worth the trip into Effingham.



Well the rest of the weekend we just kinda puttered around the house, which was nice for a change since the summer months are really busy around here.
