4th of July

The Fourth of July was filled with family for us.

We spent the morning having breakfast with Billy's family.  His aunt Patty and cousins Brandon and Darci were visiting from California.  It was really nice to see them.  I forgot the camera, but Patty took several family pictures - I will have to get them from her.  After that, we walked around the outlet mall and picked up a few things, including a new bathing suit for Cal.

We spent the afternoon over at my parents house on the lake.  We were joined by the whole family, including my aunt, uncles and cousins, plus a few friends.  It was a relaxing, low-key day - just sitting in the lake, hanging out, grilling a few burgers and dogs.  Cal took a nap when we first arrived, so he missed this:

Look at their faces...they are terrified!

But he did wake up and join the party.  Cal loves the little beach.  He plays in the sand and throws rocks and watches the boats.  It was tough to get him out of the water!

Too busy to look at the camera.

It was a good day.
