4th

What a 4th! We finally took out a toy Brad and Melisa left us, so that Aeryn, our little water baby, could play. Loves it! We bought colored sand at Wal-Mart. One blue, one pink and one purple bag. It's so pretty all mixed together. We also put some crystals in the sand for Aeryn to dig up. It was nice because I was able to read my book while she played. We had decided to go to Riverparks to see a fireworks show. Tim and I haven't been since we were kids. We went to Reasor's for some picnic food to easily pack and take with us. There were three different areas set up. We went to Veteran's Park. There were free jupiter jump toys to play on. Aeryn and I went down the smallest slide, which also had the shortest line. Then we rejoined Tim on the blanket and ate our yummy picnic dinner. There was a stage set up in the area, the Mid Life Crisis band were playing. We were there for less than an hour before the fireworks started. Good timing. It was so cool to see a big fireworks show. Aeryn was not scared at all. At times she even got bored and would play with her glow necklaces.
Hans and Sirry came over that Sunday for some burgers. I make good burgers. We ate out in the back yard. Earlier Tim set up the pool for Aeryn to play in, and when she walked out and saw him filling up the pool, she signed "I Love You" to the pool. Water baby. :-) After they left, I had to hurry to play softball. Yucky heat.
