Happy Birthday!

We know that our country celebrated it's 232nd birthday this week-end and I hope you all had some fun and some good eat'in! Also celebrating a big birthday (but not quite as big a number..at least I don't think it was as big) was a certain Tasmanian couple. So here's a birthday shout-out to Kevin and Lyn. I know that you had a wonderful surprise gift in the form of a far flung son. We missed him here with us, but are happy that he got home for a visit. We took Isabelle and Joseph to the first parade they'd ever attended, and even though it was very small townish they were thrilled. The Atlanta paper showed several celebrations from around the city and burbs(didn't think they considered this even in the burbs) and one of the pix was from the parade we took them to..and they were in the picture! We grilled out on Friday night before heading out to the fireworks. Throw in swimming and it made for a big day and some tired people.

Isabelle has gotten interested in crossword puzzles, but after trying the adult form thought it best to stick to kid puzzles!
