4th of July weekend

Laura going on a ride with her sister

Nate had to work Saturday and Monday of the 4th weekend. But we were still able to fit in some fun!! Saturday when he got off work we drove up to Clear Lake to spend some time with friends there. Then on Sunday after worship and lunch we went to the fair. Judson enjoyed people watching and thought all the rides were great. But we did not take him on any.

There was a playground in the middle of where the carnival was. Judson thought it was a great place to play. And I thought it was great because it was not $5 a ride! :)

This was a pretty tall slide and Judson climbed all the way up by himself and would go down unprompted. He is very adventurous!! It was so much fun to watch him play!

We came back late Sunday night and Nate had to go work Monday morning. Judson and I however got to go to a birthday party. It was at a great park with a fun playground and sand volleyball court that the kids could all play in. Judson had a great time playing with all of his friends. But he really loved the cupcakes!!

Then that night we were invited to cook out and watch the fireworks with friends. It was a fun night. We bought Judson some sparklers to do. It was funny to see his reaction with them. I really should have taken video but it was hard enough to take pictures with a 2 year old and fire involved! He did seem to like them, and really liked the fireworks!

It was a very busy weekend! But it was fun to spend so much time with so many friends!
