America's birthday

Henry's Old Papa and Great Uncle Matt were in town for a couple days around the 4th of July.  Henry couldn't get enough of "man-time" with the guys!  I say this every time he gets to see his Old Papa, but he is so lucky to have a Great-Grandpa who gets down on the floor and really plays with him :)

We were supposed to have a boat parade that was going to go through our lake, so there we were, sitting out on the deck for an hour, it was 90* outside, waiting for this parade of pontoons to come through.....and nothing!  Apparently, we found out later that there were only 4 boats in the parade and they skipped our lake all together, it was a big bust, oh well.  

So, off to the VFW for lunch we went.  Burgers and dogs at the VFW on the 4th of July, how patriotic!

After a good nap, we headed over to the Hausmann's for our annual 4th of July party, complete with lots of water fun and great grilling as always.  It was a hot and sunny day out there, perfect for the water slide!



Jed certainly put on quite a show with his fireworks display in their backyard.  Henry was loving stomping on the snaps the most ("snaps" may be a NoDak term, not sure what they call them here in MN).

By the time we made it home and visited with the neighbors who were out lighting their fireworks, I don't think Henry got to bed until 9:30pm that night, probably the latest night of his life - party animal!
