Good thing, because I don't have time to tell them. It has been a crazy week/weekend and I feel like I still haven't caught my breath. All of my immediate family gathered for the holiday weekend. That meant trips to and from the airport, extra bodies under our roof, missed naps, hordes of unnecessary (but delicious) calories consumed, a lot of sun, many BBQs, a trip to the theater to see a smart and well written movie (WALL-E), a few fireworks, a nice afternoon by the pool, hours of Wii game play, a few games of volleyball (if you could call it that) and plenty of good times. Here are a few pictures of the events. Most of the pictures were uploaded to my mom's computer and so I'll have a few more to post later, But for now:
(After actually looking through the pictures I have, I realized that I only have 4 decent shots. Needless to say I will have to post again when I get the rest)

Right before a nice sister kiss!

Their 4th of July outfits (they were only clean for about 10 minutes!)

Desi and Cora playing the Wii.

Sara, Desi and Cora waiting for the fireworks to begin. We were parked at the top of a parking garage downtown and had a perfect view!

I know I've said it before, but I love the 4th of July! Every year I notice all the kids at the parade decked out in patriotic outfits and think I should do that NEXT year, and then the next year rolls around and I forget again. Aw well. The clothes my kids wore to the parade were candy/slobber stained before we got home and then they wore their swim suits the entire rest of the day. How was your birthday?
What a great place to watch the fireworks. Was it busy? Glad you had a good time.
Wow Desi is all grown up and she looks so great! Sounds like you guys had such a fun 4th!
That first picture is priceless
Love the pictures of your girls! They are adorable! Natalie had to have an outfit change as well because of her pesky mess making problem! The parking garage is a great idea, what a great way to see the firworks and not fight all the people!
I'm excited because I'll be there in a week and then I get to see you!
That down town parking garage idea for the fireworks is awesome. We might have to steal that one next year!
I guess I know where I'm going for 4th of July next year! That sounds like an awesome weekend! Your girls are so cute!
Hey there. There is another Stephenie Meyers book that I am going to recommend you read....The Host. I had trouble getting into it at first but then I couldn't put it down. Maybe you can rope your book club into reading it along with you. :)
Looks like fun! Did you get a Wii? Fun stuff!
