Happy July 4th 2008

We spent the 4th doing the usual stuff such as going to the parade, BBQ's, watching fireworks, and of course babysitting the Wren's dog which I strongly suggest you all try next year. It just isn't the 4th without a little bit of Puppy. I am just teasing Michelle stop worrying. My family decided to have their party on the 5th and when we got there they had a big surprise for the kids. They bought one of those blow up water toys and you should have seen my kids faces. It was like it was Christmas in July. Kennedy said "This is the best day ever." So I think she was a little excited. The kids loved it and so did we. We could just sit back and relax while the kids went crazy. It was perfect for kids their age. Unfortunately there was a little mishap two hours in when the blower went out and it shrunk to a foot tall instead of its normal 8 feet. The kids were begging for Papa and Daddy to fix it but there was nothing to be done. The blower had past on to the next life but at least we know that it had a good last two hours. My mom contacted the company and they are sending her a new one right away and my kids are counting down the hours. Here are a few pics before the catastrophy.

How fun! Kennedy is just way to adorable. I babysat the Dygert's dog on the 4th. We could have had a doggie play date!
