Happy 4th!
Yesterday we celebrated the 4th a day early in the Marietta square. We met our friends Jason and April and Riley. April's sister Misty and her two children, Jordyn and Landon, were also with them. We had fun eating lunch together and walking around the square and letting the kids play:




Emily went down this big slide but then the next ride she got on she got to the top and then didn't want to come down. I think because it was closed in and there were lots of kids around. Jordyn tried to help her down but she wasn't budging. So I told the worker that my daughter wouldn't come down and that I needed to go in there and get her. He looked to be about 16 or 17 years old and said, "well I'm really not supposed to let you do that." And I was like . . . "well . . . she's not coming down so what do you want me to do?" Bless him . . . I did get to go in there and get her. All the kids were surrounding her and trying to make her feel better and one little boy was trying to help her down. They were all so sweet. Crazy girl!


On the way home Emily fell asleep and then Abigail took a really late afternoon nap at home, so we decided to give it a go and head to the fireworks. I gave the girls a bath and then we headed up there right at sunset, so we only hung out about 5 minutes before the fireworks started. After a few minutes though Emily decided the fireworks were too loud and wanted to go home! She sat in the car and watched the rest thru the window. Abigail enjoyed just being there. Emily decided next year we needed to be further away so it won't be so loud : )

While we were waiting to head to the fireworks Emily wrote her first E on Joe's puzzle!
So this proud mama had to get a picture of it. I don't know if you can see it but look closely. It's on the bottom row towards the left:
Today on the way home from church Emily said she didn't feel good and when we got home she asked if she could sleep in her bed. So I checked her temp and it was 103 : ( Kids sure do get sick fast . . . anyway, she went upstairs and slept for 2 1/2 hours. While her fever was down this afternoon she played some but then by this evening was back to feeling yucky again. I hope it's just a little bug that goes away soon and that Abigail stays fever free!
Happy 4th everyone!
