Happy 4th of July

Well Mike had the day off and as tradition has it - he got sick! The boys, mostly Titus now do as well - runny nose, fever, soreness, and for Mike a sore throat. Yesterday we did go out for fireworks though. In the morning I hit the JC Penny sales and got 14 items for $28 (all but one item was $1.67) I was ecstatic! We had ribs and corn on the cob for lunch and while everyone else napped I did some painting, it's my best so far, but I'm not done. We had planned to go to the Beach for the fireworks but b/c it was 45 min away and we hadn't been to that area before we decided to go to the Jacksonville Landing. We found a nice spot on the grass and the music was nice patriotic and the fireworks were, in Caleb's words, AWESOME.
They had two barges in the river shooting up at the same time as well as fireworks off the two bridges on either side it was really nice but it did rain on us off and on. Our other lesson learned - don't park in a parking garage. Right as we got there our fuel light turned on so for 20 min we sat in the truck but since no one moved in the line we decided to get out and walk to some air flow. About an hour later we got out of town. Our night ended around 11:40 but thankfully everyone slept in this morning!
