July 3, 2010

It was a great day here. I think I may have gotten a little over heated in the parade, but other than that we had a really good day. Next year, I'm not going to carry a back pack. Michaela and I will find a little wagon somewhere and pull that with our "supplies." I think the back pack just made me too hot.

This afternoon, my mom came over early to help us get ready for our guests. We used her EZ Up tent and ours, so we had two. We put the food tables under those on the patio. We also had places for people to sit under the tree. It was a normal summer day, but the breeze kept it bearable. We had a really good turn out. There were about 26 people here all together. Everyone seemed to have a good time.

Between my mom, Michael's mom and Karen, I had a lot of help getting the food together and cleaning up. It was great having both sides of the family here. It means a lot to me when I can have both my family and Michael's family together. And, having our friends here was an added bonus. I am just very grateful for the people in my life.
