Four Little Rubys: A fun filled 4th!

Happy Belated 4th of July to everyone! Hope you all had a fun, safe weekend! We sure did! We were quite busy with activties going on each day. It all started with Collins 2nd Birthday party on Thursday night (Happy Birthday Buddy!!)-- we had fun hanging out, playing and swinging at the tractor pinata! Friday we went to the Cannon Valley Fair with the Litschke's and Menge's. Gabby went on her first fair ride! Wee!!! (the only picture I have of this is on my phone, and I don't know how to get in onto the computer yet :))-- Saturday we went down to Faribault to hang out at the Rubins camper with the Litschke's and Menge's. We had a nice day hanging out. It was a little warm and sticky...but we managed! The kids enjoyed some fishing and swimming in the lake. Sunday we went to our annual 4th of July picnic at Hyland Park in Bloomington with my family. The kids had a good time playing on the playground, getting wet in the water sprayers and the little girls enjoyed running up and down the hill! Boy was it hot that day! Yuck!!! ... Sunday night we went to a party at the Schutt's house were we had some great food, played in the big jumper and watched some pretty fireworks! On Monday we headed over to Shakopee to go to Sandventure Waterpark with the Johnson's. It was really fun....but short lived, as we got rained out! Whew!!! Did you get all that! We finally had a little rest on Monday night and went to bed on time for the first night all weekend! Yay! Below are a few pictures of our weekend!

*Oh...and just an update on Gabby and her nuks....she is doing GREAT! She very rarely asks for it anymore...and goes to bed so good! She did such a good job with the whole situation! I'm so proud of her! And...in case you didn't notice, Nolan is sitting on his own now, and is about 5 minutes away from crawling! :)
