4th of July Weekend

Garret had a great 4th of July this year! Unfortunately it rained almost the whole weekend, but we still managed to have a bit of fun. On saturday they had fireworks at the outlet mall across the street from our house. We walked over to the mall in the evening but it started to rain so Garret and I decided to go back home. We were able to catch the firework show from the back yard of the house later that night. Garret thought the fireworks were great! He liked watching the "popping lights".

On Sunday we went to church in the morning. That evening we went down to Bonita Springs to the Star Spangled Bonita even that they had. Mimi was working with the Zonta club at a pie contest. Uncle Larry and Leslie happened to be there too. We ate a variety of pies and then walked around Riverside park. They had small carnival rides for the kids. Garret went on a train ride and the swings. He watched his first hot dog eating contest... Lets just hope he never decides to enter in one. The fire works were delayed due to the rain so we didn't stay late enough to catch the show. Garret fell asleep in the car which was the perfect end to a busy weekend.
