Independance Day!

The Family had a wonderful Independance day! The afternoon was spent with family and friends. The children voted on the evening plan to stay at home and pop fireworks. The street show was just as good as going downtown!

Work projects for Mr. have kept him working slightly later at the office. He also had to work a few hrs. on the 4th and saturday the next morning. These are sacrifices he makes to have positive work opportunities. His work is very interesting. Thanks to a good word put in, Mr. got a raise!

Mrs. had a blast planning a birthday party! She also succeeded in making two cakes! Her desire to ease the work load of Mr. came true! Her two nights of Defensive Driving classes were held at an adjacent building to his office, so afterwards she hung out and helped Mr. put some binders together. She was glad to help, so he could finally take his vacation! This was a month of first time events such as going down a water slide and going to an art gallery!

Vacation was so much fun! The family went to a ranch, waterpark, San Jacinto to see Battleship Texas and Monument, Natural Science Museum, and art galleries.

Joshua Michael turned 5! He got a new big boy haircut, a new outfit, and got to see the Wall-E movie. This year his party was a Pirate theme. He is very independent, and his best quality is being so caring.
