4th of July Weekend

I did another no fb weekend while we went up north for the 4th of July. I really need to do a full week / month. =)

Josh had Thursday off so we took all 3 girls to see Despicable Me 2. We really liked the 1st movie and loved the 2nd. We had a lot of fun. Josie slept through part of the movie and then the other part watched it with us on Josh's belly. =) She loves watching TV. The rest of the day we just relaxed at home. It was nice.

Friday Josh got out of work early which was a surprise - it was great. We were really itching to get up north. We normally go to my grandparents cottage on Wolf Lake in Baldwin, MI. Every 4th of July.
We had lunch before we headed up and stopped for Jones Icecream when we got to Baldwin. I added them on facebook and they advertised Red White & Blue Raspberry Icecream. YUM! We went back on Saturday but they were all out so I just got black raspberry. Abby got Mackinaw Island Fudge, Jasmine got watermelon, and Josh got black cherry. The rest of the night we hung out outside and did some fireworks. Thankfully people around the lake have the big fireworks because we just have the little "pew" fireworks. LOL

Everyone up there:
My Mom & Dad
My Grandma & Grandpa
My Sister & Bro-In-Law & Luke
Uncle Davie, Jacob, & Micah
Uncle Mark & Aunt Debbie & Mark Jr. "Markie"

I did go swimming a little on Saturday otherwise the weekend was pretty relaxing. Just sat on the deck and enjoyed looking at the water and talking. Over all a great weekend.

Abby & Jasmine LOVE going in the water and going on pontoon boat rides. Grandpa was feeling a little bit better and spoils them with boat rides. They were very good girlies why we were there. Abby is a little fish. Jasmine also kept counting all her money in her purse. With everyone's help she got up to about $15. More than I've got! ;)

Josie is such a good baby. It doesn't matter where we are - she does the same sleep schedule like she does at home. Sat night she slept 8 hours. Of course since I nurse - I was really full but I didn't want to wake her up.

Luke turned 1. He lifts his hands up now if he wants someone to pick him up so of course when he does that to Aunt Sissy I have to pick him up ;). He was my buddy for a little while. I think he's teething and had some diaper rash so there were times he was not a happy little boy. Hopefully his teeth will come in and his diaper rash will heal quickly. He was also up north for a whole week. He's a busy little crawler. He'll be walking any day now.

We left early today to get home to relax. We had Mcd's for breakfast. Stopped and got some donuts at Hilltop and then we've just been relaxing at home. Josie also let us take a 3 hour nap. That felt nice.
Abby has her reading program again this week and I'll be cleaning 3 days.

Hope you all enjoyed your 4th! I realize I don't have too many blog readers yet but anyway.... =)
