4th of July

For the 4th of July, we went to visit Steve's Uncle Scott, Aunt Brenda, and cousin TJ. We all had a really good time swimming. Erik enjoyed the lake, while David preferred the pool. Aunt Brenda is a great cook, and we all stuffed ourselves full of her wonderful southern food. The boys also really enjoyed playing with their dog, Heidi.

Scott and Brenda let us stay in their camper trailer (which was really nice!), but the boys refused to sleep in a big boy bed. After a long day without any naps the boys still wouldn't fall asleep. We even drove them all around in the car hoping that would work, but Erik refused to sleep. We decided it would be best to head home so the boys (and Steve and I) could get some rest. The boys didn't sleep well on the way home, but once they were in their own beds, they slept great. I guess they are still a little young for camping. Maybe next year. :) But we have plans to make another day trip to visit Scott and Brenda and TJ because we had so much fun!

Isn't Texas green? I really love it.
