Hot Dog Chunks and Grandparents

It was such a fantastic weekend. Tom's mom and step dad came to our house to see Morgan and celebrate the 4th with us.

Tom and I got to go out on a date alone. We went to Red Lobster. We're both suckers for king crab. Later, after running home to check on everyone, we went to the movie. We saw The Proposal and loved it. Betty White is a crack up.

We spent the 4th grooming our yard and straightening our house so everything was ready for our party at 5pm. We can't figure out what's wrong with our grass. It used to be pretty and green.

I put little American flags around the pool.

We opened the pool and had some friends over for a bar-b-que. Everything went very smoothly with the exception of one of the kids choking on the pool water and puking hot dog and cupcake in the pool. It reminded me of one time I was at the Nephi pool and somebody pooped. Everyone had to get out while the pool was being cleaned. As soon as Tom had vacuumed the hot dog and Collette skimmed the top, everyone got back in. No big deal.

When it was starting to get dark we set off fireworks. When those were done we went to Tom's office to watch Boise's main firework show (the office is on a hill and has a great view of Boise).

It was a great weekend! Thanks Nana and Papa for coming. Please come again soon.

Sounds like a fun day. So jealous of the pool. I could really use one right now. I am so hot.
