Our plan was to sleep in today. Didn't sound difficult as we all crashed in our beds the night before. Dave and I had hoped to sleep until, sayyyyy, the crazy late hour of 6 a.m. Ummm, lets try more like 4:50 a.m. Not nice kids, NOT NICE.
Dave was generous and let me take the early morning time to run while he tried to hide under the covers from the hailstorm of our ever so lovely, too early rising, kids.
Any calories that I may have burned were quickly replaced by the breakfast feast my dad had prepared in my absence. OHhhhhh, bacon . . . what a sweet, sweet meat candy you are!
The big boys cleaned up and headed out golfing, while grandma and I took the kids downtown. We ate up the fantastic people watching, cheap jewelry, pizza, and sticky rides. Trenter even made his debut in the Spokane splash pad. My oh my he squeals like a little girl!
We all arrived home close to dinner time, where, once again, Grandpa and Grandma showed us how things are done. Steak, corn on the cob, watermelon, rolls, and all the fix-ins were laid out for us to graze on. And grazing is something we excel at.
That night we watched the kids perform a special 4th of July show, which, included Grandma performing the Sprinkler and Dave doing the Running Man. We finished up with a poppers and snaps finale (fireworks are banned here).
We again had our eyes shut before our heads even hit our pillows.
