What a fun 4th of July weekend we had! I left work early on Friday so I could get home and do my weekly chores and then not feel bad about enjoying the rest of the weekend with family. Saturday was basically a relaxing day at home with Megan after a Rainbow run in the morning - I had to double my coupons after all!
Sunday the real excitement began. After early morning church we packed up and headed to my sister Rachel's new apartment. She has a pool area and access to a grill there and we thought this would be the perfect opportunity for a barbeque. Grilled pork chops, potato pouches, sweet corn and watermelon tasted great outside. Of course we remembered plenty of sunscreen! As you can see, Megan really enjoyed the pool - especially with Daddy!
Our fun time with Auntie Rachel ended too soon but Megan needed a nap and we had a gathering at John's parents to go to next! While Megan napped we all had a cherry picking party. We picked well over a gallon of cherries and I have been baking cherry crisps like you wouldn't believe and still have more to put in the freezer. Yum! We also had a fantastic grilled dinner here of hamburgers and hotdogs and every tasty side you could think of.
The highlight at the evening at the Lewis's was the girls playing outside in kiddie pool. Megan and Alexa were both in and out and in and out.
The girls really liked being hosed off by Auntie Kristin at the end. She would spray them and they would run away because of the cold water. But they didn't stay away for long - they kept coming back for more and more sprays of water.
