Happy fourth of July!!

So our family had one of the best weekends ever! What did we do you ask? Basically nothing, except that we were together the whole time. It was wonderful. Doug had the fourth off work, so he came home on Thursday night and he was mine all weekend! (Except for Sunday, because when you are the Bishop you never get Sundays off :) Anyway, this weekend really made me realize how much I love my little family. We played in the backyard, took the kids to TGI Fridays for lunch,(which they loved because they never get to go to what Brielle calls REAL restaurants) and just had fun being together. On Friday we cooked hamburgers and corn on the grill and went with a couple from our ward to see the fireworks. They started an hour later than they were supposed to so the kids were really tired, but they enjoyed it anyway. Then on Saturday we went shopping at Sams Club. Who doesn't love Sams on Saturdays when they have tons of samples? Then we came home took naps and then took a trip to Target where Doug bought me a beautiful dress! Can you believe it? I haven't had new clothes forever. Then Doug made us Supreme Nachos and smoothies for dinner, and after the kids went to bed we watched the Spiderwick Chronicles. That was pretty much it, but I loved every minute of it. I love having Doug home. There is probably not much more I would have liked to do to celebrate our freedom than to be with my family. Thanks sweetie for a great weekend!
