4th of July!

I hope everyone enjoyed thier day off! On the 4th we got out of bed early (9 a.m. is early for a day off!) so we could go to "The largest cherry pancake breakfast ever!" at the open space for the Cherry Festival. I don't know if they made it or not, but it was a lot of fun. The line was really long but it moved quickly. We waited about 15-20 min. You got three pancakes, cherry topping and two sausages. Unfortunately they didn't plan very well with the drinks, they ran out in the first 45 min. I thought they were planning for the largest breakfast? Looks like they didn't think much about the drinks! We spent the rest of the day at Sean's parents house in Elk Rapids. His Aunt Patsy was visiting and she brought Sean's cousin David with her. Scott and Stephanie and their two kids Isaac and Sam were visiting as well. We celebrated Heather and Aarons Birthdays while we were there. Luckily we have had a lot of chances to go swimming lately and it has been really fun. Julia doesn't like swimming too much, she is very sensitive to the cold water. We went swimming then ate dinner and later on we did sparklers and some small fireworks, that was fun. Thanks Heather and Aaron for bringing them! On our way home, we parked by the side of the road to watch the TC fireworks, the finale was really weak! My parents were in Drummond Island since Sunday and I called and talked to them on our way home. Sounds like they had a good time, my dad did have to do some work for Doc while they were there though.

Since I am now part time, I also had today off. It was really nice, we slept in and didn't do much of anything today other then hang around the house with the kids. It was nice to have a day off and just do nothing! Tomorrow is back to work for me. I told my boss Beth that I was pregnant on Monday. She took it better than I thought. Not that I thought she would be mad or anything, just with all the stuff I put them through with going part time and now this? Well, she was excited for us and said "Well we have plenty of time to plan." We haven't talked about maternity leave or anything like that yet, so I am not sure how that will go.

Thats it for now.

Glad to hear you had fun. Not going to lie, I need a man or more friends. I was alone on the 4th until about 6PM. It was kinda sad.... but I did clean the basement! I am going to have another baby, I mean you are!
