The 4th of July Weekend

For the Fourth of July weekend, Taylor had the Friday before off, so his weekend was a 4 day weekend! Lucky guy!
Saturday the 3rd, we went out to Pelligrino's for breakfast: we used to go to breakfast all the time but we've since cut back on that expense and the extra calories. The weather was beautiful so we sat outside on the patio and enjoyed a lovely breakfast together.
Taylor schedule for the firewood to be dropped off on this day too, so when we got home, he was busy cutting up the wood with his chainsaw while I weeded the front of yard near the road. I couldn't believe how overgrown it was! Unfortunately I didn't get an after shot, but I did get a before: Embarrassing!

I did manage to get it all cleaned out so it looks beautiful again. There is just so much yard work to do...it's truly never ending.

Sunday we went and saw T R A N S F Ormers 3 - in IMAX 3D! The movie wasn't as good as I had hoped, but it had good entertainment value.

On Monday the Fourth, we joined the Zabel's at their lake property to enjoy the beautiful sunshine. We relaxed, went on the boat and just visited while absorbing some much needed vitamin D. After the lake we headed to a BBQ with them and from there went to their place to do fireworks with them and their family. Our very first 4th was also spent with the Zabel's...we love them so much.

We were splashed by the freezing cold water! YIKES!
