4th of July!!!

On Saturday before the 4th we had a big 4th of July party at Papa's house! Ollie & Ivy are ready to get going!

Ivy like ALL of the fireworks...she kept saying "Oooo that's my favorite!"

On Tuesday evening (7/3) we went to see the fireworks in O'Fallon, MO.  We found a field looking towards the TR Hughes ballpark.  When they finally started we could hear them but couldn't see them over the ball park.  We all turned around and they were right over top of us!  It was awesome!

Wednesday, the 4th of July!  Erin and I ran in the Firecracker 10K in O'fallon.  It was very hot.  It got up to 104 on the 4th.  After the race we found a place to watch the parade.  Maw Maw brought Ollie and Kevin brought Ivy.  The parade was very long and there were alot of politians.  They were not throwing candy, plus it was so hot!  After an hour and a half we went to McDonald's to cool off and order food and wait out the rest of the parade.  Afterwards we all headed to Erin's for a pool party!

On Friday the 6th, Maw Maw picked Ollie up early from daycare and took him to Nob Hill pool!  I stopped by on my way home and said hi but didn't stay long because it was too hot.  It has been over 100 degrees for more than 9 days by this time.  We are breaking records this year. 

Saturday the 7th, it is still hot so we met Papa at the Mills movie theater to see the new Spiderman movie.  It was pretty good but long.  It was 2 1/2 hrs long!  Ollie had his own popcorn, soda and candy and had to go to the bathroom about 5 times during the movie!  Later Saturday evening we celebrated a birthday...can you guess who's???

Bella's!!! It was Bella's 4th birthday!  We got her a special birthday doggie cookie  and Ollie picked out an "ant" cake for the people to eat.  We ordered chinese for dinner and then we all sang happy birthday to Bella and Ollie got to give her the special cookie!
