4th of July

Thursday I took a half day and Gary was lucky to get out of work at 1:00 so we took off and headed up north to Walhalla for the weekend. My aunt was nice enough to let us stay the weekend at her and Scott's cottage along with my sister and her family. The weather was PERFECT and a great time was had by all.

I just love seeing the little guys, the grow so much each time I see them! I think Logan may be "following the leader" in this picture!

Chase also had the opportunity to eat his first s'more! I think he took about two bites and had enough. Apparently he's not too big on marshmallow! How can you not be?
Gary was assigned the task of entertaining Logan for a bit while the girls were busy. He did a good job for a few minutes but I think he ended up in tears. It's not Gary's fault though, he wasn't feeling that great anyway!

One of the highlights of the weekend was going the The Rendezvous with everyone for what we thought was going to be karaoke night. Unfortunately, it being the holiday they had expected to be dead and did not have karaoke. So we improvised and somehow Gary convinced the bar staff to let us play tippy cup. It took a few minutes, but the adults eventually caught on to the rules and were quite good at it. I think they may have even won the young vs. old match up!
It also happened to be Marge's 50th birthday so my Aunt had the clever idea of having all the ladies decorate a bra so we could hang it in her yard with a sign that said "Happy 50th Marge. We support you!". They turned out great, very creative stuff! Mine is the Dallas Cowboy looking number in the photo below. I kinda wanted to keep it. :)We had a big cookout in honor of Marge on Saturday night and Nick, Adam, and Exo's band played for our listening enjoyment!
MANY thanks to Aunt Paula and Scott for allowing us to crash for the weekend! We had a GREAT time!!!!

***UPDATE***: I stand corrected, apparently Logan started crying AFTER Gary was done playing with him. My mistake :)
