Happy 4th of July


This year for the 4th we checked into "Hotel Staten" along with Uncle Chicken, Aunt Shelley, Caleb & Leah. We had a great time enjoying the pool all weekend.
On the 4th Ashley and I took the girls to the annual 4th of July parade in Sachse. It goes down the main street in front of our neighborhood and Grace waits all year long to go. Of course what kid wouldn't knowing that they throw tons of candy to you. This was Ava's first year for the parade so she wasn't really sure what to expect. At first it scared her but when she realized that they threw candy she stepped right up to the curb to catch it. After the parade it was back to "Hotel Staten" to enjoy the rest of the weekend which included a day of swimming, playing with cousins and friends, and cooking out. We ended the night of the 4th by going to see the Garland Fireworks Show at Firewheel. The girls were exhausted but they were really excited about it.

The rest of the weekend we just played and swam. We had a great holiday weekend.

Thanks Grammy and PaPaw for going out of town so we could check in.
