4th of July 2013

A long weekend shared with family and friends to celebrate independence day. Where do we start? Well on the 3rd, Daddy took Bella to work for the day and boy did she have fun in the big city where she was born. She got to take the train downtown and later, we were able to meet up for lunch and were treated to the Rainforest Café experience. Lots of animals, waterfalls and ACTION! Later that evening, we got together with friends in which we took the girls to the fireworks in town. Isabella LOVED the action, however Baby G did NOT like the fireworks and vomited all over everyone in fear. I am thinking that by the time she turns 3 years old, she will love it. Or maybe not. On the 4th, we packed up the car and joined our friends at Michigan City Beach where we barbequed, played volleyball and shared lots of SMILES. The girls had such a great time playing in the sand. On the 5th, the boys went fishing while the girls stayed back and the kids played by the pool. By evening, we enjoyed the fresh catches of the day. On Saturday, we had a fish fry in which friends and family got together and ate some yummy food. Grandpa Dale and Grandma Chug know how to make mouths happy with their yummy treats! On Sunday, (whew) it was time to relax and refresh. I was out of commission for a couple of days and didn't get to take as many pictures as I would have liked, however here are a few pictures from the weekend...until I went down for the count. Bob bought some fireworks for the weekend and we never did get a chance to light them off, but maybe soon. Until next time....
