Weekend Wrap-Up

What a fun holiday weekend! 

Friday morning Kent golfed with some neighbor friends. While he was gone, the kids wanted to bake pies so we made one blueberry, one strawberry (so patriotic!). We spent the afternoon hanging out with friends and heading to the pool with some neighbors.  Highlight of the pool trip was watching several of the dads battle it out on the log roll.  Wish I had gotten some pictures! Friday evening we grilled out with some friends- so good to catch up with them!  Later we went to fireworks in Slater with my parents.  My kids were tired from a full day but had a great time! 




Saturday morning the kids had triathlon practice then we headed out on the boat. Kent skiied, Kael and Kylee did the ski trainer and Kase slept in my arms.  It was a beautiful day to spend on the boat.






After boating we went out for lunch.  My dad surprised us and ordered a pizza cookie as an appetizer! You should have seen the look on the kids' faces.  A cookie and ice cream for an appetizer?! They loved it.





Saturday afternoon we went to Aunt Chris and Uncle Richie's house for their annual Fourth of July pool party.  It was so much fun seeing all the extended family and lots of friends.  We spent the evening swimming and playing volleyball.  





Yesterday we talked about going out of town for a quick trip to my grandparents' pond but we were all totally wiped.  It had been a busy weekend and the kids were tired.  So we had lunch at my parents house, the kids played water balloons and sprinkler there while Kent and my dad prepped some things for our upcoming trip to Panora. Came home, went to the pool, then cheered on women's USA soccer! The kids had so much fun just playing with each other last night - I was glad we had decided to stay home and be low key.  Hope you had a great Fourth of July!
