July 4th Weekend Update!

Whewh!
We've been back from vacation for a week and I just now feel like I am gettin' back into the swing of our routine!
Guess this ol' pregnant girl isn't as full of energy as I used to be! :)

Like most of you know, we headed back to Missouri for our annual 4th of July trip!
And this year we were back home for just about 5 days! - one of our longest trips to date.
The 8+ hour car drive is never fun... especially now with 2 dogs and 2 potty trained (training) kids... but we always seem to make it and when the kids get there them and us both are happy to have survived the car ride and are ready to spend time with their cousins!

Although it was scorching HOT while we were back in Butler, we still had lots of fun and found things to keep us cool!

I'm pretty sure all the kids were in the pool at least once every day!





And Grandpa of course had to play too!


We also went fishin'!

Well we fished for awhile and then the kids wanted to play in the lake a bit...


We made sure to hit up the local fun spots, like the new Super Walmart and Koehn's Bakery!
The babes love the doughnut holes but I say they make the best apple fritters ever!


And, just like we promised, we made sure to have Sonic Slushies every day, per Tuck's request of "fun things to do on our vacation!"


And of course... we had tons of firework fun on the actual 4th!




Even though it's a little late... I hope you all had a great 4th of July!
We had a fun time but are happy to be back home and gettin' back to the swing of things!

*Oh, and last week when we got home I had an appointment to check on baby #3, and it looks as though all is happy, healthy, and well!
I am already in my 2nd trimester... woohoo... this is going fast!
(well kind of) :)

Hope to chat more this week...
Chat later,

Jen
