Sunday after the 4th, we had friends join us for a cookout. Weather was beautiful and perfect, of course, for Popsicles. Course, it doesn’t take much for that!

The kids loved the bouncer and climbing toys, running around like crazy. Jameson has continued to get more daring on the bouncer.

Everyone enjoyed watermelon pre, during and post dinner.

After dinner, kids wanted to play more so we opened up the water table and bubbles. We had a little trouble keeping bubbles in the dish, and sharing, so that was a very short-lived activity.

The evening brought with it some shade, so I took Coraline out to try the hammock. She actually seemed to enjoy it! Alternative to swinging? Maybe, except I’d be concerned with spit up.

It was a great day to spend with friends we don’t see as often. And a perfect end to our holiday weekend!
