I almost forgot...The Fourth of July!!

Posting about our Fourth of July celebrations just slipped right through my fingers, in fact it was almost forgotten. We can't have that now can we??

We had company for the Fourth of July. It was actually a bit of an extension on our Gulf Coast vacation. Perfect because even though the vacation was technically over it didn't really feel over. Clint and Jenny joined us for the weekend and that was the icing on the cake (or maybe meringue on the pie is more appropriate since Jenny made one tasty Lemon Meringue Pie!)

We squeezed in a few activities like cookie baking...

red, white and blue sprinkles for the occasion...

card playing...

and cowboy boot wearing...

We grilled, we chilled, Emme practiced sitting up (she's becoming quite the little pro)...

while Carter pretended to be a kitten...

and also enjoyed a bike ride with her Uncle...

they were fulfilling a need for speed...

Uncle's are good for things like that...

it was a great weekend, one of my favorite kinds, spent with family and friends. They don't get much better.
