Happy 4th of July!

I had no idea Adam knew anything about posting on our blog but apparently he's a better blogger than I since his post has received the most page views! I was heading to my connecting flight in Miami when I read his post...

I'm grateful he's decided to 'stay at work' as I love my job and wouldn't trade it for the world...well maybe somedays I would. Most days I still can't believe all the fun things I get to do with my kids. 

I did want to clarify that I didn't leave him stranded...yes daddy day care was in full affect but he forgot to mention the 'help' I lined up for him while I was away. I'm very thankful that I was able to be in Alabama with my family and the kids had a lot of bonding time with Daddy. He's so amazing with them and I just love him more and more each day as I see him interact with them and love us so sacrificially! 

Our neighborhood had a 4th of July celebration on Sunday evening. I dressed the kids in their best red, white and blue and managed to get a few 'good' pictures of them. It's amazing how many I have to take in order to have at least one of both of them looking, smiling, not crying or having a temper tantrum, etc...

Happy 4th of July!
