Our July 4th Weekend

Our 4th was very laid back.....With all the rain, our plans of attending the downtown fireworks display on the bayou were abandoned! I figured since the bayous were overflowing, sitting on the banks would be sort of soggy and the mosquitoes were probably the size of small horses! We the obligatory hotdog for lunch and then took naps. For dinner, we headed over to my parents' for some yummy BBQ ribs & chicken! Later that night we headed over to the race track to watch their fireworks display. It took forever to start, but was worth it in the end!

Pics from our day:

Jackson wasn't playing along!

J was all hyped up on tons of sugar & was SO sweaty!

Emme slept in the truck for about 20-30 minutes.

July 5th - We went to the beach, only to get home and hear that tar-balls had been found at Galveston. Luckily, we did not see any! The kids had a blast! Aaron & I are a little crispy, but not too bad. On the way home, we stopped at Gabby & PaPa's for a much needed shower & some homemade icecream ! We ate dinner at a new mexican restaurant that got mixed reviews and then came home!

Emme mad her milk is gone

On to water!

Fresh out of the ocean - the deeper we went, the tighter

he clutched Aaron. He LOVED every minute of it

and didn't want to play on land!

I took this pic of J making sandcastles AND

of the weirdo, shirtless, hairy chested man

in jeans & boots

Aaron's sunburn includes a Jackson print!

I hope everyone had a fabulous 4th! Thanks to all the men & women that serve to defend our country and make our fun weekends possible!
