The 4th of July

Spot and Sis- sis enjoyed her popsicle but was a mess when she was done.
Sis and Dinky- Dinky was the obsession of the kids. She was our next door neighbor's at the cottage- a chiuaua/rat terrior mix- tiny little thing.
Sis, Ryan and Dink
The other obsessions- Tate and Charlie. THese boys are our next door neighbors at the cottage. Tate is going into 7th grade and Charlie is 15. They are SOOO super nice to the kids and play with them constantly. Cobe is always thrilled when they are there at the same time as us. They played with the kids pretty much the whole time we were there.
The Bisk and the Dink


We had a great July 4th at the cottage. We went up Tuesday night when Ryan got home from work. All the neighbors were out and there were several hours of fireworks Tues. night. We all stayed up until around 11:30 watching them. Wednesday was great too. The Boeves headed up and everyone played all afternoon. We made a fire after dinner and hung out watching more fireworks. Those lasted until about 11:30 as well, then Ryan and the kids slept out in the front yard in the tent. We had great weather the whole time we were there, great food and great company. We headed home and got here a little while ago. The boys went over to the Boeves, Ryan is vacuuming the car, and I am getting ready to throw sis in the tub. Hope everyone enjoyed their holiday!!!!

Not much planned for the weekend. Ryan works all weekend including everyday next week for training, and the boys are both in camps next week- Brooks goes to gymnastics for 2 weeks and Cobe goes to soccer camp next week and science camp the week after that. Summer is FLYING by!
