Emma singing the ABC's

July 4th

Joe and I took the kids to the Cold Stone building to watch the fireworks at the new baseball stadium. The fireworks were supposed to start at 9:30 p.m. but it didn't start for another hour and a half. It was so late, we almost went home but did not give in. We had great view but we realize that we were actually to close so it was super loud and the kids did not have a good time. They cried for 15 minutes and then they didn't even want to see the fireworks. Maybe next year will be a little better.

I love this country, I feel safe and is my home now. Happy Independence day US!

Cleaning the yard

Well, the front yard was looking bad again =). I think, we cut the yard every quarter. So it can look funny sometimes. Anyway, I only realized the front yard had over grown because landscaping companies left their business cards in the door. Joe worked on the yard one Saturday morning in July, it was a little cloudy but it was still super hot. The kids wanted to go outside with daddy, so I put some gloves on them and ask them to help daddy pick up the garbage. The kids were very happy not too helpful yet but they tried hard.
