4th of July 2010 (Better late then never)

We had a fabulous 4th of July weekend! Our weekend started out on Friday, Eric's company let them off of work at 2pm! After relaxing for a bit, we all got ready for a night with our friends. Actually Katreena and I were going to see Eclipse, while the hubbies watched the babes. Due to lovely holiday traffic, we had to take the back roads. A trip that usually takes no more then a half hour, took us almost exactly an hour. Luckily Claire did great and napped the whole time! The movie was amazingly good. Katreena and I both loved it. They babies had fun with the men. Claire was a sleep in Eric's arm when we walked in the doors. I love seeing my hubby holding his baby girl! So sweet! Saturday was a very warm, humid day. Our day started out with a little yard work for Eric and a little pool time for Claire and I! That afternoon we got Claire's 12 month pictures taken, followed by Claire's 1st firework show. She absolutely loved it. She was oohing and awing the whole time! We were so happy that she did not scream bloody murder the whole time! On Sunday the 4th, we had a BBQ at my parents house and then made our way down to a little town called Cedar Lake to watch Eric's mom sing with a local band at Cedar Lake's 4th July Festival. Claire played carnival games, people watched, and ate pulled pork! It was SO humid and hot but the day was so much fun!! The night ended with a laser light show over the lake! We had a very nice 4th of July weekend!!
