Independence Day Weekend

Our long weekend started on Thursday night with Ben and Tiffany at North Hills listening to Beach Music. It was their first time and our second. There were alot less people there and it made it alittle more pleasant to be there. We again ate at Five Guys and it was Yummy.

Here's Ben and Tiff.....and here's Luke and I!
The bass player in the band was so super funny. He was wireless or something but he stayed up on stage with his band about 10% of the time, the rest of the time, he was just walking around the plaza playing his music and posing for pictures.....see..... how funny is that!!!Then there was a beautiful sunset...and Tiffany and I posed for a picture in front of the water fountain! I just love hanging out with them and love that they are so super close to our home.

Friday was spent sleeping in and we were so grateful to have a morning to not work and just relax. We then got to work doing some more nesting for our baby. It's hard work but we are glad God is giving us time to get it done. The big thing for us was getting the bed out of that room and making room for the crib. We just ordered it and it should be coming in about 2 weeks. We are very excited.

That evening, we had Josh and Meg over for our 4th of July cookout. No big bash this year. We were planning on going out of town and didn't make out annual bash plans, but then our out of town plans fell through. But it was great to have Josh and Meg over with Gabrielle! Isn't she a sweetie poo?!?!?

The funniest part of the night is when Meg had Elle on her shoulders jumping around, then all of a sudden, Meg felt something warm and wet down her neck! Yup......Elle spit up all on Meg's hair!!!! She says "What, I didn't do anything."Then it was time for dessert with my American Flag Cake. Luke said it was cute and that he was so proud of me! It was one of thise things that just looked nicer in my head than in reality. But hey, it sure tasted yummy!!!Just when it was time for fireworks, he lightning and thunder came.....then the pour down came. We got out there just in time to snap a few picsWe were sad that there weren't fireworks. Luke have been going to the art museum for them for about 8 years now, but oh well, I'm not gonna go sit in the middle of a wide open field while it's lightening just to watch fireworks right!!!!

We spent the rest of the weekend going to the flea market and other places shopping for baby!!!!It was very relaxing yet very productive. Praise the Lord!!! Hope you all had a great long weekend too!!
