4th of July Recap

Dusty and I had a very quiet 4th of July. We worked in the apartment and managed to get our kitchen table assemble, the new bedding put on our bed, and are now able to walk into our spare bedroom. The evening of the 4th we listened and watched fireworks from our apartment...yes...our apartment. There were fireworks going off on quite a few of the driveways around our apartment.

On Saturday we were in Bismarck and decided to go to the rodeo in Killdeer with Dusty's family. We ate pizza with Dusty's sister Jess and her husband Chris. Their kids, Brayden and Hailey were very excited to see us and couldn't wait to show us their newly painted rooms. AFter supper we headed to the rodeo. Brayden and Hailey (our nephew and niece) had a lot of fun. They laughed and talked the whole time. When we left their house after the rodeo they were wound up...we may or may not have had something to do with this. We did bring them gummi bears and pop with the pizza prior to the rodeo. I'm sure we will be repaid in a few years when we have our own children.

Brayden has so much fun w/ Dusty. They get along so well!!!

After this past weekend, I can't wait for Dusty and I to spend more weekends with each other and our families. Even though there was no 4th of July party, I still enjoyed the holiday and am proud to live in America and so thankful for the service men and women who put their lives on the line everyday to defend my freedom. Thank you.
