Happy 4th of July!

We have had an interesting July 4th. First, we had a BBQ lunch that was sponsored by a team here. It was very good--ribs, pork, grilled corn on the cob, and all kinds of good things. We really enjoyed it.

So, after Caleb took his nap we decided to go to an "I Love America" fair. When we got there, there were old-fashioned airplanes flying overhead. Very cool! There were all kinds of games: moonwalks, rockclimbing and such, and people parachuting overhead with ribbons and flags. But it ended up being soo hot, that we didn't stay very long. We were just going to go back in the evening and watch the fireworks show. (Which Keith and the big kids are at now, and he just called to tell me it's the best show he's ever seen. The kids are having a blast!). So here are the pictures from the fair:






Well, after we left the fair we decided to go walk the mall and eat at the food court. After we parked, I went in the back to get the stroller and it wasn't there. We had left it at the fairgrounds! I had put it on the ground and told Keith to put it in the van, and he didn't hear me and next thing you know... So, we had to go ALL the way back (a pretty good ways) and sure enough it was right where I had left it. So, we pick up the stroller and go ALL the way back to the mall and eat...Couldn't look around because the mall closed at 6pm. We must have gotten there around 5:30pm. Oh, well. We go back to the dorms and give the kids a shower and wait for the time to pass to go back to the fairgrounds at 9:30pm. Well, while we wait, Josiah smashes his finger in the door and hurts it pretty bad. (No need to worry, it's fine.) I'm thinking, "What is going on??" Ah, well, a day in the life of our family. :)
So, these next pictures are just some cute pictures of Caleb. He has discovered a couple of fun things he likes to do: climb up the footboard of the bed, and crawl into our laundry "baskets". Aren't babies fun?
