4th of July Festivities

We kicked things off Friday night at Amy's sister's house. She had TONS of food! We swam and afterward headed to watch fireworks.







 Saturday we were supposed to go to a friend's lake house, but I was deathly sick all day. I ended up running between my bed & the toilet all day long. No fun. Sunday I felt better, just weak. Monday we went with my mom & Patrick's family to the Arlington parade. I always go to this with my mom. It used to be better back in the day with really elaborate floats, but now people just get in a trailer & wave. Oh well. Elliot still enjoyed herself.


Elliot & Eleanor sharing a seat.
She loved waving at the people in the parade.

Later that night we went to my sister's to swim & bbq. Unfortunately Lane got sick from me, so he wasn't feeling well. We decided it was best to leave early. I was so upset that I still wasn't feeling well enough to eat anything. Oh well, I don't need any help in the gaining weight department.

What a fun weekend! Well, minus the you guys being sick part. That kind of sucks. Elliot looks so cute in her red, white and blue!

No cast. I bet you guys are so happy. Miss Elliot is so big now. Her hair has gotten so long. She is looking less like a toddler and more like a tike. We miss you guys. Glad you and Lane are feeling better. It is no fun being sick on a holiday.
