All of our visitors have come and gone. The last few weeks have been a whirlwind for me. My mom came out to help my brother and sister-in-law move to Athens almost 3 weeks ago! I still look out my window to see if they are home so I can play with Abe, but alas they are no longer there and that makes me sad :( My younger brother also moved out and headed back home to NJ (tear). I really enjoyed getting to spend so much time with him! what an adjustment it has been to go from having people around all the time to being alone all the time. Very weird! After they left my mom-in-law came and stayed with us for a week to celebrate the fourth of July! We had lots of fun....
We started off the holiday by going to Red, White, and BOOM! since I work downtown we got tickets to go up to the deck of my building to watch the fireworks! It was such an Awesome view!
On the 4th, DJ, Lindz, Abe, and Brad joined us for a cookout and some cornhole! and we helped Abe be patriotic for his first fourth of July! my mom-in-law bought this hat at Red,White,and Boom (One of the residents called her Lady Liberty...the balls light up too! too funny!)
Then on Sunday we went to the zoo to meet the new baby elephant! we barely caught a glimpse, he was so popular!
And then we went on a boat ride and saw exactly ZERO animals with a 30 min wait time! So after the boat ride we had to walk around and see all the animals we were supposed to see on the ride! ugh! but all in all it was a great day with great weather to boot!
Now we are settling back into the swing of normal life and trying to make the most of every day with all the beautiful sunshine!
