Red, white, and blue, and lots of rain, too

We had a very laid back, soggy Fourth of July holiday. The highlight was seeing Uncle Steve & Aunt Pauline who pulled into town on Monday all the way from southern California. We feel really honored and blessed that they would come all this way to see us, considering my cousin (their son) and his family live in the Lubbock area. If you're not familiar with TX, Lubbock and San Antonio aren't exactly in the same vicinity.

We talked a lot, ate a lot, and they played a lot with Lindy. She loved having them around to willingly play with her, read to her, and give her lots of attention. I tried to talk them into potty training her but no deal there...They did however provide some helpful advice regarding the matter.

Hope all of you had a lovely day and that you had a chance to reflect on the meaning of the holiday. Here are some pictures of us during the holiday.
