Birthdays, 4th of July and more

Time sure flies when you are having fun! June flew by with our cruise, then a visit from Atlanta friend David, then a week long celebration of me getting old. Woot! I actually worked on my birthday, but I brought in cupcakes to celebrate. The real celebration took place at mom and dad's where we splashed in the kiddy pool, ate out at the Wok About Grill, then came home to homemade cheesecake with fresh picked raspberries...YUM!!


Then July snuck up on us. Johnny got older too (Happy birthday from afar!). We celebrated the 4th of July with friends at their house on the lake and enjoyed good food and lots of fireworks (so many that it was nearly 11:30pm by the time they got to the "big ones").

The Thursday before the 4th, we peeked at some houses, and to our surprise, we actually liked them. Our favorite one was an older home with tons of squarefootage (K and J...I think we would have more than enough space for you to stay on furlough). So, today, with stomach(s) churning, we put in an offer. We won't hear back until Friday as the owner is out of town at the moment, so until then just know that we will be on pins and needles.
