4th of July weekend

Saturday morning we got up and immediately got busy cleaning the house, doing laundry and steam cleaning the carpets. The house feels so clean and smells so yummy too!

Saturday evening we loaded up a table top grill, some burgers and all the fixings and headed to a little place over by my office that we have gone to for several years now. We met some friends over there, had a little tail gate party and waited for fireworks. What a great day/night!

Sunday we were pretty lazy most of the day and then went to a Lacrosse game in the evening where we were supposed to watch the game and then fireworks.... it started raining. Just a little at first, then it was really coming down. We sat it out for a bit and then decided to head out. We waited inside for a bit but then it got to be such a severe storm we decided to just head home. There ended up with streets flooding all over the place and people hydroplaning in front of us (scary!). But we made it home safely, even though it continued to pour rain in a storm like I have not seen in quite some time - it was a lot of rain!

On the way home though we turned down this street and right in front of us was a city fireworks show and we could see it so perfectly...we only got to see the finale but it was still awesome (and we weren't getting drenched watching it!)

Hope everyone had a great, wonderful and safe Fourth of July!
