July 4th Weekend

There is no doubt that the Peterson Family is the 'on the go' type. We have surrounded ourselves with great friends and family that is too hard to resist seeing when the opportunity arises. Each day of this festive weekend was full of good company.

Saturday was an enjoyable afternoon, turned into evening with the Bauers. Pool fun, girl fun, food fun, and good drinking fun with a great game of Spades.

With my Daddy, things are 'aye okay!'Sunday it was time to BBQ. In tow with both girls we partied at not one, but two bbqs. I was nervous for the constant change of scenery all weekend but I couldn't be happier about the behavior of sweet Lily. I won't give her an A+, but no one is perfect. She adjusted well to the different crowds of strangers and fit right in!! Molly = piece of cake!

Let's not forget MONDAY...a day to show our patriotism. I dawned the girls in the cutest red, white and blue outfits (not much to show of Molly) and we headed to Purcelville for their local parade. Here we are headed in town for the sights of local fire engines, girl scouts, boy scouts, etc. Exciting, I know, but there is nothing like coming together to show off our freedom on the July the fourth!Hooray!Ok, maybe those fire engines aren't the best things to see.....Lily was for sure not the biggest fan of all the flare and noise the fire trucks, ambulances, and police cars had to offer. But no worries, Daddy's leg will save you!

This is only a sneak peak Lily's true DISLIKE of fireworks. I'm not quite sure what it is about the noise, but it did not satisfy her thrills! Molly on the other hand gazed into the night sky with me, in awe and wonder of the beautiful firework show. Until next year.....I am happy to live in the land of the free and the home of the brave!!!
