July 4th!

I don't know about the rest of you, but we love holidays! It is so nice to have Jeff home for an extra day or two when a holiday roles around. The girls love it! We had a very nice 4th of July. Grant and Alyssa drove in from Atlanta to spend the holiday with our family. We appreciate their sacrifice to be with us...lets just say they have been on the move as of late and, oh by the way, Alyssa is in her third trimester of pregnancy. The girls were so excited to have them here. Have I mentioned before how much they love visitors? Anyway, after a traditional cookout we went swimming, fishing, swimming again, and then watched fireworks. It was a fun-filled day. We really do appreciate the great country that we live in. I take great pride in our nation and what we stand for.



Trey had a rough day yesterday. He cut his first bottom tooth and started to run a bit of a temperature. In fact, last night it got as high as 104 degrees...when my kids have a temperature they really have a tendency to spike. He still did not feel all that great today, but the medicine helped to keep his temperature in check. Hopefully it is nothing major, but if we have another night like last night we are headed to the doctor in the morning.



Here are a couple of pictures from our time with Grant and Alyssa!
