Bodee's first 4th!




6 months old - the 30th or the 1st?!?!



So today was Bodee's first ever 4th of July! We started it off by working in the flower beds. Barry and Gus went to Amity and got a trailer load of mulch yesterday. We finished planting this morning and Barry finished the mulch around 3:00. HOT HOT day. Well to me anyway. Not as bad as it has been the past couple weeks. Then we headed out to Breanna's 8th Birthday party/cookout at Damon and Anita's. They had the whole backyard decked out in red, white and blue, they rented a bounce house, of course had their big swimming pool as well as a little one set up for the kids. The kids ran from pool to bounce house and back all night long. We took Zeke with us. He and Gus stayed in the jump room the entire evening!! Zeke didn't even come out to eat! Gus was fascinated with the stairs on the deck and then we went inside the house...WOW...he was amazed with the stairs inside even more!! We pigged out on hamburgers, hotdogs, birthday cake and homemade ice cream. There were so many people there I can't even begin to name them. Fireworks started at 9. Gus HATED them!! Papaw (my dad) had to take him across the road to their house. Bo woke up, was amazed by them for a while and then he hated them, also. So across the road Barry went with Bo. Zeke watched the fireworks with me for a while and then with my mom the rest of the time. He loved them enough for all 3 of the boys!! It was a great night and a great way to kick off the rest of Bo's 4ths!!!! God Bless America!
