Bits of our 4th of July

My first 4th of July with kids AND the day off!  Hallelujah.  Not like it totally matters, but ya know, it was really nice to be home with Dave (and kids) on a holiday.  This year, we just walked on up to our local parade and pancake breakfast.  We musta had about a 1000 salt water taffy thrown at us, with Jude eating 500 before 10 am.  So yeah, we played around at the little fair, came home, ALL took a nap, and then headed to a BBQ at my friend Marcie's.  She was really cute and had all these fun activities for the kids to do and come firework time we just headed out into her cul-de-sac to watch them.  

It was a really fun day.  Leland stayed up til 11 without making a peep.  I put him in the Ergo thinking he'd fall asleep on me, but he seemed content to just watch the haps all night long. He really is the best baby.

And that's that.  I truly want to get back into blogging a bit more, and not be so boring about it (ie, posting a thousand pics + not much insight).  BUT, we'll see.  Seems like I'm busy enough with life.  In other news, it's been a really great summer, and I'm just not ready to say good-bye.
