4th of July Weekend

The 4th of July weekend started off with an attempted hike on the 3rd. We walked out our front door with the intention of walking around our local mountain, a hike that should take about an hour and a half but...it did not go exactly as planned. We thought that we were prepared and Kera was enjoying her first experience in the hiking backpack...

...but not far into the hike Abby decided that she didn't want to walk anymore and wanted to be carried. We only ended up hiking 1/4 of the hike with me carrying Abby the entire way. I was sore the next day! The good news is Chewy had fun...

...and Kera had a good nap...

On the 4th we had our neighbors over for a pool party and potluck. We all had a great time!

I even had a flag craft for the kids...

Abby's flag is the one on the right, just in case you couldn't tell.

After the pot luck we all headed outside for some fireworks. It was a great day with neighbors and friends!
