Fourth of July

July 9th, 2010 · 1 Comment · Family Life

For the Fourth of July we went to visit David’s family.

It was a lovely weekend.

Everyone there is so NICE.

Saturday we went up for a wedding.   It was a little different; the women were in traditional wedding garb and the men wore white oxford cloth shirts and ties and they all had their shirts untucked.  The bride was beautiful and her sister the bride’s maid was drop dead gorgeous.   I don’t remember her being that beautiful at her wedding.

We left the reception and went to a Cousin’s house.  Lots and lots of fireworks were lit.  My son was in heaven.

Sunday we went sailing on a Cousin’s sailboat.  I guess we didn’t actually sail because it was so windy but we motored in the sailboat.  It was relaxing and fun.  They let the BoyChild pilot the boat.  That was one of his requests.

Then we went to a different cousin’s house for a fish fry and more fireworks.

The BoyChild stayed up late every night.  And he did fine.  He had a small melt-down about 10:30 on Monday night but it was minor and he was whipped.

It was such a lovely weekend.  And I can’t get over how nice people are.
