Fourth of July

All right, all, don't fall over in shock but I think I am actually going to try my hand at this as well! Maybe I'll be able to keep up with this better than I will our website or my journal . . . . plus, 4th of July sounds like a pretty good place to start!






We were very excited because this was the first 4th of July we'd all been off since I started residency and Luke was actually old enough to be excited about it! He woke up at about 530 because he couldn't wait for the fireworks. We spent the morning at the Eagan Parade with our friends the Ericksons and the Anselmos. Luke was mostly excited about the candy grabbing (and the flag-waving) and Evie basically slept through most of it. We then headed over to the Ericksons for a BBQ and the kids played in the pool. We did make it to the fireworks, though Luke had gotten sick and was so tired he actually fell asleep during the finale. He got his very own tub of ice cream and did a few sparklers, though, so it was all in all a pretty good 3-year-old day!
