Happy 4th of July

4th of July on Cedarview is quite an event - a 12 hour event in fact. We started off with a bike parade for the kids - everyone decorated their bikes and rode up and down the street while the parents and neighbors cheered on the sidelines. Next was a jumpy house, lunch, water fight, and socializing. By 6:00 p.m. we were all still celebrating so we decided to roll out the bbqs and have dinner in the street. Last but not least we ended the evening with an amazing firework show.

Memorial Day in San Diego

All three of us headed down to San Diego for Memorial Day weekend. We spent 3 days on Coronado Island with Abi's grandparents whom she refers to as Papa D and Murray. We were lucky enough to have the fog burn off each day by 10:00 am so we had plenty of time to have fun in the sun. Abigale loved the beach but she loved hanging out with her grandparents even more. Every time we went back to our condo and left the Russell's she would throw a fit. Thanks for a great trip Papa D and Murray!!!!

Visit from the Lawlors

We were lucky enough to have Tim, Christy and Alee come and spend a few days with us this week. The weather turned very hot so the girls spent most of the time playing in the water. Abigale is still talking about Alee and her ice-cream bus house.
