4th of July



It's been a busy weekend for us! Erik had Friday off. I truly can't remember what we did that day, so I'll skip it. On Saturday, our friends called and asked if we wanted to swim in their pool. We ran errands in the morning, and then went to their house after lunch for some swimming. On Sunday, we went to church and afterward enjoyed a hot dog lunch outside. We went to Jenna's parents' house for dinner and lots of play time. Jack and Kate have 2 year old cousins who are triplets. The kids were herded outside where they ran around for a couple of hours before dinner. Then, we decided to meet up with a group from church to watch the fireworks. The only reason I liked the idea was because I thought they started at 9:15. Nope. The fireworks didn't start until 9:45!!! (There were some illegal ones set off near us, but it wasn't the real show.) BOTH kids stayed awake the whole time, and Kayleigh didn't go to sleep until we got home a little before 11! Kayleigh and Brian both enjoyed the fireworks. They were also ready to get home and into bed. I was very surprised when Brian woke up at 6:00, ate, and then wanted to stay awake! Kayleigh woke up at 8:00. Sheesh! Why don't my kids sleep in???

Sounds like you all had a great 4th of July weekend. I don't know why your kids don't like to sleep. Maybe they'll make it up at nap time.

Maybe they have the Villacampa curse like dad, Val and Nick.
