Our 4th of July

We had a great 4th with friends and family. Gram and Pops came to visit us for a few days and they embarked on all of our 4th activities with us. We enjoyed a parade in Jonesborough on Friday in addition to a carnival at our church in the early evening. We then sat on our back porch and had a panoramic view of fireworks, much like we enjoyed last year. On Saturday, I enjoyed a quiet breakfast with one of my good friends here while Patrick started smoking a pork, which cooked all day for us to enjoy later in the evening with friends and family. My mother-in-law took me shopping on Saturday afternoon and bought me a few new clothes, which was a huge treat for me. Today, we spent a wonderful morning a church, lunch with friends, and a quiet afternoon at home watching Nadal win the Wimbelton Championship. It's been one of the best weekends we've had in a long time. Here are just a few of my favorite pics. I'll have to post more later after the children go to bed...

Great pics! Ethan looks like he is slimming down. I love him in the chef's hat! I'm so happy that his big sister gave him the OK to wear it this one time! Looks like you had a fun filled weekend. Mallory looks beautiful in piggy tails! I can't wait to see you all again real soon.
