Fourth of July

We had a wonderful weekend and 4th of July celebration.  My aunts and uncle were in town for a week and we always have the best time together.  On Monday the ladies decided to hit the Avenues for some shopping and Marc insisted that I join them - love that guy! We didn't do much shopping but everyone went home with something new.  Macy was worn out and fell asleep on the way home.  We moved her onto the couch and she slept like this for another 45 minutes.


We had our family up for a cookout and Kayla wrote a special song for the celebration.

And we spent the rest of the evening laughing and having fun. Brooke had a great time playing with Uncle Gary and her baby doll.  In this picture she is talking on the "phone" (aka a calculator).

And we had a marching band performance.  Brooke joined in and followed her sisters around the house. 


Macy once again decided to march to her own beat and pull out the headphones for her own music.  

 
Everyone left to go back  home today.  Macy and Brooke came down with strep throat, so we weren't able to say good-bye to everyone.  I know they understood, but I hated it.  Uncle Beans was in town for 24 hours and we didn't get to see him at all. :( Thankfully the girls are on the mend.  Let's just hope that Brooke will sleep tonight.  She wasn't too keen on the idea of napping today, so it has been a VERY long day. Marc is letting me have a nice, long break downstairs while he gets them ready for bed and I need to get back to my packing list because we are leaving in three days for Mexico!!
