Happy 4th of July

We took a trip to PA this past weekend for the annual Kevin Harper Fireworks Show! And I must say it was spectacular. He really gives some professional ones a run for their money. Funny to see that some of the neighbors drive out and sit in their cars to see it. Neighbor Bill was even in his tree stand for it! Ryan was scared at the beginning of the fireworks, but calmed down once he was sitting on Kris's lap with his hands over his ears. Emma did fine for a while, but then decided she was too tired and didn't want to sit through anymore of these loud things - just put me to bed!

They both did have a great time. Not sure why, but I have no pictures of Ryan! He was always busy though and Emma hung around me a lot! Kris's cousin Jeff brought over an old wagon and plastic tire swing. They were both hits with all the little kids. Ryan would play on the swing the entire day if we let him! They also played horseshoes, cornhole (bean bags to Ryan), ladder golf and badmitton. Saturday, was a nice relaxing day for all.

We also got to visit with Kris's mom while we were out there and play with her for a while. And we got to try out the new improved, potty using Ryan. He made it all the way there without an accident. He had a few while we were there, mostly when he was just too busy to stop. He had one on the way home, when we were about 10 minutes from home! He has his good days and bad days! The last 3 have had poopy accidents, but he saw the big kid room at the gym and realized he could go in there if he used the potty. He said 'On Monday', so here's hoping!
