Fourth of July

I wish I could come here with all the great pictures from my weekend, but there was very little picture taking, mostly because there was nothing much to take pictures of.

Friday night, we went to Incredible Pizza Company. Noah didn't really care for the toddler rides, but he liked watching us play games and of course, he loved the ball we won for him.

Saturday we worked in the garden and then grocery shopped and went to David's co-worker for fireworks. This guy must have spent a small fortune for the amount of fireworks he shot off. It was very entertaining and Noah really enjoyed himself, even if it was several hours past bedtime.

Sunday we did some shopping and then the plan was to go downtown and see Maroon 5 and the fireworks, but it was all cancelled due to that stupid storm (more on that later). We ended up just putting up chairs on our driveway and watching everyone around us shoot off fireworks. It's kind of fun since we live in an unincorporated area and it's legal to shoot fireworks.

Monday we had my brother and sister to be along with my dad over for a BBQ. Delicious food and some homemade ice cream to top it off. And then the grand finale of our neighborhood show.

Overall, a good weekend, but nothing to share pictures of (sorry - again). That stupid storm also did something to our TV. BUT, it's covered under warranty and there is a guy coming out to fix it on Friday who thinks he knows exactly what is wrong and how to fix it (all my fingers are crossed). In the meantime, we are using Noah's little TV has a poor substitute. We aren't TV addicts or anything, but we are really used to having the TV on all the time. Usually it's the news or the baseball game.

I think Noah did like the fireworks. He would point and say "Boom" and then clap. He was super tired though, so he was content just sitting in our laps enjoying the show. It was really cute and I'm so glad he liked them (vs screaming like a crazy toddler).

Not too much on the agenda this week. Just working and living our life, I guess.
