First, I have to say, Cameron makes me laugh. Regularly.
The boys got lots of pool time...always a fun time for them!
Caitlin and I enjoyed lots of time next to the pool. Her umbilical cord had not fallen off yet, so no swimming for us.
It was a blessing to my heart to see the boys playing so well together.
To celebrate Independence Day, we grilled some delicious steaks and then drove across town to watch some fireworks. This was Cameron's first "professional" fireworks but he was really more interested in the glow-in-the-dark necklace!
Sunday we visited our friends at church in Carnegie. The drive was overcast and beautiful. Here's a cloudy shot of Mt. Scott
and the windmills.
Sunday (and several nights following) Brendan and JC had a blast with their own firework show.
Does that look like a happy boy or what?!
We all watched (except Catie, who was sound asleep inside - away from mosquitoes!) the fun!
Pretty!
Run, Brendan, Run!!!
Cameron was happy enough to have sparklers.
Cameron found plenty to entertain himself.
More poolside time for Miss Caitlin.
And more play time in the pool.
This picture was taken minutes or maybe even seconds before Cameron almost drowned in the pool. He was supposed to play on the stairs while Brendan ran inside. I was sitting by the deep end - Caitlin in one arm and the camera in the other hand - when Cameron slipped, or maybe stepped, off and couldn't reach the stairs. Setting down my camera and then Caitlin on the bench and jumping, fully clothed, into the pool seem to go in slow motion for me. I think it was the scariest time of my life.
Thank God, Cameron, Caitlin and I all survived.
Overall, it was an good and uneventful trip to Lawton. Thank you, Granny & PawPaw for letting us visit!
