While in MD last week, I had the chance to spend some time with my sisters, and mom. It was great to be together. I love them and I'm so thanful for each of them. I always wish we had more time together.

Aunt Amanda's Birthday

While in MD, we had the chance to celebrate Aunt Amanda's 29th Birthday. Uncle Phil, Megan, Jacques, Brett, Breandan; and I took Amanda to Chuck E Cheese to celebrate. We had a great time playing games, winning tickets, meeting Chuck E Cheese, and picking prizes.


We went back to MomMom and PopPop's to celebrate with cake. The boys were delighted when Amanda let them help blow out the candles. We had spaghetti with Amanda's favorite sauce and Funfetti cake.

Happy 4th of July

We celebrated the 4th at the State Fairgrounds. It had been several years since we had ventured downtown. The fireworks display was beautiful and long then we expected. The boys loved it. They were a little confused about what were celebrating and who's birthday it was... Once I explained that there was a battle for our freedom they were excited. They are into battles these days. I look forward to the boys gaining a greater sense of history as they grow up.

We took Daisy and Red Rose to the fireworks. Neither of the dogs enjoyed themselves once the fireworks went off. Seane had to take them and let them hide in the van. We were very close to the van- so it wasn't too bad. I don't think they'll be going back next year.
