Happy 4th of July


Mackenzie & Amber playing waiting for the airshow to start.







We watched the Blue Angels on Saturday the 5th in Traverse City.














On the morning of the 4th we went to Breakfast at the airport where we were able to see some airplane and watched the Blue Angels take off and land. I know nothing about airplanes. Steve is my airplane man. We all enjoyed both the tour and the airshow.
We watched the airshow from the beach with thousands of other people. We were there for hours (about 5). The girls played in the water and had a great time. They even acted like best friends most of the day. I wish I had a view from the sky of all the people that were there. Miles of people on the beach, boats anchored in the bay and people everywhere.

Were you able to go to any of the Cherry Fest activities? I know that it's around this time. Hope all is well with the family and I agree with Stephanie that school is a nasty word. It looks like you enjoyed yourselves on the beach...with kids who are getting along - priceless. :)

Steve took Monday off and came back Monday night. He brought his mom's truck down because we are using it to go camping with this next week. Anyway...the girls and I stayed through Wednesday and we did a few Cherry Festival things. The pet show was on Tuesday. They thought that was pretty cool. We watched the kids pie eating contest put they were not interested in partcipating. Thought it was a little too messy.
