Fourth of July

Our fourth of July plans changed drastically in a matter of hours, maybe even minutes this year. My ever so sweet husband and his best friend, David, decided on a whim that we were loading up and heading to Possum Kingdom. KellieAnne and I frantically loaded up the kids and headed out to buy them life jackets and any last minute thing we could think of that we might need for the weekend. We somehow managed to get everything together in just a few short hours for 4 adults, 3 children & 4 dogs.

At this point I was feeling slightly overwhelmed, exhausted & negative about our weekend plans. Long story short, we ended up having a blast! A big Thank You to the Howell & Plano families for inviting us into your homes. We went to Hells Gate for the fireworks show & it was amazing. I have never seen anything like it and Reed LOVED it. The guys put on their own firework show for everyone there to say thanks for letting us join in on their 4th of July fun and we also participated in their "Mistake at the Lake" band. I hope we are invited back next year.
