Happy 4th of July!

We had no plans for 4th of July this year. I told the girls I’d take them to the pool, maybe? But then on Wednesday night Matt called and asked if we wanted to bring the girls out to the lake. Everything just feels off right now. Our holidays just aren’t the same with Jackson in the hospital...there’s a big old hole in our hearts. But at the same time we don’t want to stop doing things. The kids deserve to have fun together. Turns out the lake was just what we needed!

We all piled into Matt’s new boat, Big Red and headed off to a cove. Once we got there we tied up with Uncle Kevin and Aunt Cindy, Jeremy and Tiffany and My cousin Tiffany was along with her kids, Brooklyn and Parker. We had to ride out one small little rain storm but it was still a great time and the cousins had so much fun. Going tubing was the highlight. And now they think we need a boat. When we got off the lake we went to the campground, made dinner and enjoyed some fireworks together. I love making memories with these people.
