A Happy 4th of July



We tried something different this year for 4th of July. We usually have a BBQ at our house and watch fireworks from our street corner. Well lets just say that the fireworks last year were a bust. It was more exciting watching the neighbors doing the illegal ones than the show from the park. So we decided to go to my parents house and see how things are done in Beaumont/ Yucaipa. We were pleasantly surprised. The City of Yucaipa put on a great firework show and had a really fun area for the kids to play. We went swimming in the morning at my parent's clubhouse. Very refreshing! We watched a parade of cars drive by the house. They were honking and waving. At the end Brianna said "That was it? That was boring!" I think she has seen one too many Disneyland parades. We ate lots of good food. Of course, I ate way too much. I wouldn't be surprised if I gained 100 lbs with this pregnancy. I'm eating a ton. It's a little scary. The nauseousness is getting better- not quite gone but not nearly as bad as it was. Yeah! Brianna had her first week of summer day camp. Today she went on a field trip to see a minor league baseball game. They had a typo that said it was a basketball game. So I didn't think to put sunscreen on her. She got a little red. She said it was sooooo hot out there. I can only imagine. After the game they got to do some water play and cool down a little. Next week is her 6th birthday and we are going to Sea World instead of having a party. My baby is getting so big! Crazy!
