Busy Holiday Weekend

We celebrated the Fourth of July on Friday evening by going to a neighboring town's street party. Joe and Grace both did the spinny ball thing. It made me want to vomit just watching them but they both loved it.


Our church had a camper set up as a baby changing/nursing station as an outreach but more importantly--they had hair spray paint! With glitter! Oh yeah. they. did.
It's this guy's fault.
My kiddos were rockin' the hair spray paint!
We ran into our friend, Anabel, and her family just before the big fireworks--these kids were wound up and had a blast!
After a late night on Friday we slept in and then went to Winter Haven to watch Pop, my dad, do some baseball umpiring. He is a college umpire and traveled down from GA with a fellow umpire to work this fancy tournament. We watched until the game got rained out, well, first there was a delay then they called the game. We all had a great time. After the game we went swimming (the rain had stopped by then) and then out to dinner at a great seafood restaurant. It was a short visit but we packed in the fun! :0)


Below is a picture from when Pop umpired my nephew, Harrison's ballgame. Harrison is the catcher and Pop was the plate umpire. If you look really close you can see the big grin on Pop's face.
