WOW, WHAT A WEEKEND!


Maggie telling everyone Happy 4th of July!!!

We have had the best weekend ever. Jack got off work early on Thursday, so it seems as if we have been on a vacation. We went to celebrate my nephew Robby's 9th birthday at Joes Crab Shack and then went back to my sisters house and hung out at their neighbors house the rest of the night. Jack was in singing heaven.

Thursday morning we went with my sister and her family to Celebration Park in Allen to celebrate Robby's birthday. Aly took Maggie around the splash park. She loved it!



On Friday we continued the festivities with Kaboom Town. My mom works at the airport, so we were able to get out on the runway and be part of the action. Well, Jack was able to be part of it. Maggie was very scared of the loud noises of the planes that flew over. It was very cool. When the fireworks went off we had front row seats. The only down side to this event was the two hours of traffic we sat in to get home.

This is how close we were to the planes! It was a great sight to see.

On Saturday we headed out to the lake. It was a nice day and we had lots of fun just swimming and hanging out. Maggie once again did a great job. We then went back to the dock for some BBQ. We had a quick dinner and then headed back to the water to have a front row seat for the fireworks. Maggie slept through the whole thing. One day she will understand what I love so much.

Sunday was a lazy day for us. We didn't get started until later, but we did manage to get me a new phone. I feel like part of society now. I can text and do so much. It is nice to be a grown-up!

Jack is off today. So, we will wrap up our long weekend. It has been so nice to have him home and to do so much. I have loved every minute of it.

Please feel free to check out smugmug to see all the fun we had.

Hope everyone had a fun 4th like us!
