July!

I can’t believe the Fourth of July and vacation have come and gone.  On July 3, we went to the Pritts’ to do some ‘Pre-Fourth Celebrating’ of our own.  Patrick was petrified and screamed through most of it.  I was the ever understanding mother and made him stay through most of it to get him ‘conditioned’ for the next night.  No one is going to make Mommy miss the fireworks! 🙂  Turns out he was fine and enjoyed the big fireworks on Daddy’s lap.  He must have felt Mommy wouldn’t be as understanding…go figure…(cilck below to see all the pics).

Then the next week we left for Virginia!  We had a great time at the Thurman family reunion.  We stayed there for a couple of days then went on to visit Uncle Nate.  We got to see his new place and go to the beach with him.  We rented a van and drove over with Nicki, Lukie and Matthew.  All the boys did a great job and Shannon even made it!  We love it that Daddy sacrificed those days of his life and joined us this time.  He actually admits it wasn’t a horrible experience after all.  (Click the picture to see the trip.)

A two day trip gets a little tedious, so here are a few highlights from the trip, also.

Uncle Nate, Aunt Meme, Lukie and Daddy all did some boogie-boarding.
Here they are catching the waves in!
