I made some cupcakes today for a baby shower and had a few extras, so I made extra icing and let the kids chose the color of their icing and let them decorate their cupcakes. They were so excited and actually great little helpers in the kitchen! Love Bug chose to make her icing pink and The Mayor chose yellow.
This evening we topped it all off with a great pool party with our Sunday School class. The kids had a blast. The Mayor had so much fun that he didn't even eat dinner. He didn't want to get out of the pool to eat...he is going to be starving at breakfast.
This has been a great week. We started with a great cookout at our house last Sunday, play dates, movies at the movie theater and the fireworks celebrating the 4th of July. This 4th was definitely a memorable one when after 10 minutes of playing in the huge grass area waiting for our friends to arrive a massive thunderstorm rolled in and we had to make a mad dash for the car. Lightning struck a transformer about 20 feet from us spreading sparks everywhere (and scaring the mess out of us) and torrential down pouring occurred for the rest of the night. We ended up going to our friend's house and then waiting until 9:00 and went and watched the fireworks in the rain. The kids didn't seem to mind since they still got to see all the "colors" as The Mayor says.
Love Bug watched from the truck with Vicki, Trent and Aidan
The Mayor watched under the umbrella with Jeremy and Avery
Tomorrow is church (and D has a 100 mile bike ride scheduled). Monday starts VBS at church for The Mayor...this summer is really flying by.
