July 3 & 4, 2009

On the 3rd of July there is a fire works show at South Sound Center. We watched the from the roof of the CDC building. The kids really enjoyed that, of course. A few nights before Chris' brother, Justin, had Chris cut his hair into a mullet. It was way ugly! He dressed up on the 3rd to match his hair do. It was pretty funny.







We went to the beach for the 4th of July. We went to Copalis Beach, where Chris' family has a beach house. It was a nice day and we were able to spend about 4 hours on the beach. Soon after we hit the sand Chris walked over to the water and Aaron fell down and got wet and was not happy about it at all. I got him dry and he spent the rest of the time hanging out and sleeping in the pop up tent we brought. The rest of the kids had a good time digging in the sand, flying the kite, getting their feet wet, looking at sea creatures, finding sea shells and dead crab pinchers, and playing with Goose (Shane's dog). Chris' brother Jeff and his family were staying the weekend at the house so we got to visit with them and ate dinner with them. We went home before it was dark. The kids had stayed up late the night before watching the fire works so they didn't miss out on anything. We had a fun day and hope that next time we go Aaron will actually play instead of staying in the tent.

Aaron in the tent!
