Its my turn to tell you all about our weekend...I suggest buckling up since this is my first opportunity to blog about our activities. Lindsay has done a terrific job the past week sharing our stories and she has asked that I give it a try, so here goes.
We celebrated our nation's birthday with a full day of fun and family. The 4th of July started off with a lazy morning around the apartment (I speak for myself when I say that our morning was lazy...Lindsay proceeded to workout for an hour!). After some chores and some time with our feet up, we packed up for a day away from the house. We packed up Kyla and headed over to the Patterson home to soak up some sun and play around the pool with the dogs. Kyla got to try out her new life jacket (hilarious) and Lindsay spent most of the afternoon laying out (she has a rather interesting sunburn/tan that closely resembles a rare rash, haha!).
We packed up once again after playing at the Patterson's and headed to Costa Mesa to spend some time with the Smith's. Our late afternoon and evening was spent around the patio table enjoying conversation and bbq'd burgers, wieners, corn and dessert. One of the highlights of celebrating Independence day in Costa Mesa is the freedom to legally set off fireworks! We spent the better part of an hour lighting Hornets Nests, Dixie Delights, King Kongs, and Running Rebels (just to name a few). Just in case your wondering, we walked away with all of our fingers and thumbs in tact (hard to believe i know).
We wrapped up our day by making a stop at Ronda and Adam's before returning to the Patterson's to pick up our pooped puppy. We were told that Kyla enjoyed her first 4th of July immensely and she apparently loved the fireworks!
Sunday kicked off with another lazy morning before heading out to run some errands. We weren't quite sure what to do with ourselves after lunch since we didn't have set plans, so we stopped off at Blockbuster and rented a movie for a little matinee on the couch. Chicken was on the menu for dinner along with some grilled pineapple and couscous. We relaxed on the couch before calling it a night and a weekend. As always, we made the most of our time together after a busy week of work. Onto another week of work and a weekend of fun to wrap it up.
