Sarah's Journey: 4th of July Weekend Recap

Happy 4th of July!!

We had a very nice 4th of July weekend; the weather was just beautiful, we all had a 3 day weekend, watched the parade, had a nice BBQ with my sister and her family at our house and then ended the day with smores, a big fire and fireworks in our own backyard.
The parade in town was pretty long considering that we are in a town of population 5700 approx. it lasted almost 1 ½ and had various floats, lots of old cars etc. the kids enjoyed of course the flying candy more then anything :-)

Saturday after a nice big Belgian Waffle Breakfast my sister and her family went back home. Garry took the boys fishing and Sarah and I spend a few hours in the Garden and we had so much fun. All three of us that includes the dog where just a mess full of sand and soil and sweat lol…. In the evening Garry and I went to a River festival for some music and more fireworks in Point and Sunday we pretty much just laid low and hung around the house. Originally we had opted to go geocaching but then it started to rain and we decided to not chance it given the heavy storms we have been having over here when it does get going. It really would have been a great opportunity to do some more unpacking in the house but lol we really really did not have any motivation to do that :-)
My goal is to have it all done before the big Holidays at the end of the year …..hahaha…

Moving forward well Steven started Drivers Ed and yes I actually let him behind the wheels on a country road…. I can’t believe my Baby will turn 16 on Monday and drive..sniffle..
July and August will be a couple of very very busy months for us since Drivers Ed, Soccer for Samuel are almost at the same time and keep us going Monday thru Thursday and when Drivers Ed is done Steven starts to Referee Soccer again and then play himself when the High school league starts in August. Then there is getting ready for school again, a trip to Somerset and Upper Michigan before Labor Day as well. Sarah will start Early Childhood and will be officially going "to school" .....

Ok Mom I am ready......
