Random Photo Friday

Here we are...Fourth of July weekend. Before we break out the sparklers and hot dogs, I'll share a bit about the week that was at our house.

So...this happened.
My son started work!
He is working for his Dad, just as his dad was when I first met him all those years ago.
He works three mornings a week, and so far he really likes it!

One of Flynn's favorite things to do while visiting my mom is walk up the flights of stairs, and take the elevator back down.
And Grandma is happy to oblige.
Again. And again. And again. : )

This little one loved Finding Dory.
Really loved.

Nicolas is great to have around.
He loves my Mocha...

He makes delicious pancakes...

And best of all...

He is a true gentleman.
My Madison could not have found a better man.

Flynn and Peyton baked cookies for our Monday night Bachelorette watching party...

And they were good.
Really, really good.

Are you tired of hearing about our twenty-fifth anniversary yet?
Well, this is it.
Promise.
Peyton baked Patty's amazing blueberry pie and added some double chocolate brownies for dessert on our actual anniversary.
What better way to celebrate?

These beautiful roses came from Nicolas' parents in Denmark.
A beautiful ending to our Anniversary celebration. : )

And here's my Peyton.
There really is no end to her talents!

Have a wonderful Fourth of July weekend, my friends!
Eat hot dogs, enjoy fireworks, watch movie marathons, spend your time with your people.
And...just how creepy is this picture!?

That's better.
Happy Fourth of July, friends!
Thanks for visiting. : )

    My daughter loves to hula hoop, too.

    Wow! How wonderful that your son can work with his father. He is very blessed.

    Yum, yum, yum - those treats do look delicious! So nice to have daughters around to bake so many goodies!

    I am so excited about this holiday weekend, and speaking of this holiday, I love your Independence Day Blog look.
