4th of July

Despite the rainy weather we had a great time celebrating the 4th of July at the lake. Michael and Logan got to take their first jet ski ride with Grandpa, we took a lot of boat rides, and did some swimming. The lake always does their fireworks on the 3rd so we got to see a great firework show from the boat. Since the 4th was so rainy we took the boys out to lunch and while Michael and Logan went to see Up with Grandma and Grandpa, Aiden did a little shopping at the outlets with Mommy and Daddy. Michael and Logan loved the movie and are still talking about it!

Heading out to watch the firework show. This was WAY past the boys bedtime!!! Aiden was a little sleepy and wanted to snuggle with his puppy on the boat ride but once the fireworks started he was wide awake and loved the show.



Zaharako's is a restaurant that my mom's friend Helen used to take my sister and I to when we were little. I never imagined I would be taking my kids there someday! It was great to see the place fully restored and the food was just as I remembered. Michael and Logan loved hearing the pipe organ play...which was good since we were sitting right next to it. I loved going to this place when I was a little girl and it made me a little sad that Helen is no longer with us but brought back some great memories for me!
