What better way to celebrate America than going to a baseball game?? On the 4th we headed up to South Bend for a Silverhawks game. It was great. Allison and Lauren worked hard to learn "Take me out to the ballgame" in preparation for the big game, so Allison was a bit disappointed when they sang "God Bless America" instead, in honor of the 4th. Oh well. She was still able to get her peanuts and cracker jacks so that kept her happy. The night was concluded with a fireworks show and I think all the kids liked it (and the adults too!).
Saturday was Katelyns birthday and she chose mini-golf as the activity for the day. It was fun, but a bit warm and I think the kids tired out pretty quick. At least I know Allison and Lauren did. I think Allison was done after about the 3rd hole. She seemed more interested in the rocks and the magical blue water than golfing. Oh well. It was a nice family activity anyway.
We enjoyed a nice dinner together at Ponderosa (Steak and buffet) where the kids got to pick and choose whatever they felt like eating. Then we had Katelyns birthday at home afterwards wtih presents and cake.
Grandma got some neat bubbles to play with after the party and we had a nice evening together.
Sunday was also a special day. We blessed Megan at church. It was great to be able to do that with everyone there. We had quite a few visitors at church--our primary had 10 kids in it (about double our average Sunday). We wish all of you could have been there! (Could you imagine how big our primary would have been if all the cousins were present!)
So all in all it was a really great weekend! We hope everyone had a great 4th! Check out the rest of our pictures here.
