July Summer Fun

July has been a busy month so far. First we had the 4th of July. We had a great time hanging out with the family and grilling out. After dinner, we headed to downtown Nolensville for the fireworks. We usually go to Crockett in Brentwood, but we thought we would try something new this year. So, we made it just in time and had our own private spot. Caleb and Caden both stayed awake through the whole thing and they were so enamored with the fireworks, or fireflies as Caleb called them. So, as the grand finale was coming to an end, we loaded up the car in hopes of beating the traffic. Well, no such luck. We tried to take a back way, and found out that the road had been shut down to become a one way in the opposite direction of our house. So, we decided to go the only other way we knew to get home and it too had been turned into a one-way...of course in the opposite direction. So, after Shane almost getting into it with a Nolensville cop and calling Uncle Brian for some help, we made it home after 35 minutes in the car when it only should have been 3. Oh well. C'est la vie!!!

Unfortunately we don't have any pics of the fun because our camera died. We will be sure to have it charged for next year!

We hope everyone is doing great!!! Happy 4th of July!!!

On Saturday we went to our cousin Kingston's 3rd birthday party. Caleb had so much fun playing with his cousins and the other kids, splashing in the water and riding around in Kingston's new power wheels. Caden, of course, was just content watching all the action and smiling and laughing at everyone. Meanwhile, some of the big kids had a fun time playing a serious game of horse. I don't think we really got to finish the game, but hey, it was fun while it lasted! Anyways, Happy Birthday Kingston!!! We love you and hope you had a great day!!!
