4th of July Weekend

This past weekend was great!! Crystal and Dean came up to visit for the weekend. They arrived Friday night and we took them out on the big town of RR. We had dinner at Logan's Roadhouse (I love me some Logan's). After Logan's we came back to play a few board games. We tried a new one, The Last Word. I think the girls ended up winning and then we started Encore, but we all got a little tired and ended up not finishing. Saturday morning we woke up had breakfast, watched Surf's Up (if anyone hasn't seen this movie, I HIGHLY recommend), and then went to Walmart to try and find a game we could play outside while we were grilling out for our 4th of July dinner. I looked for Cornhole, but the only thing they had was Ladderball, which we ended up getting. After lunch out at Chick-fil-a we came home and played a couple of rounds of Ladderball. Unfortunately, this was not our game (us girls that is). I think we ended up playing about 4 rounds and we didn't win a single game, yes it kills me to admit this. There was a couple of games where we were very close, but they guys squeaked by. After dinner, which the boys grilled out some burgers and corn on the cobb, we played some more and then were able to watch some fireworks that were being set off in our neighborhood. When it got too dark to play we came in and watched the race. After the race we all went to bed. Sunday we had breakfast and then Crystal and Dean had to leave. Michael and I went to Walmart real quick to get some groceries and then to Belk to get some work shoes for him as well. For a late lunch/early dinner we had some take out Japanese and came back to watch some TV. We ended up watching a movie and then hit the bed. A very good 4th!

Hope everyone had a wonderful 4th of July, and I want to thank all of the men and women who are serving our country throughout the world!!

I LOVE that picture of Trapper. How did you get him to sit still long enough for that?
