Hunter and I were so thrilled to have Daddy home for the 4
th of July weekend! We spent some great time together as a family up at Hess Lake. Chase treated me like a princess the whole weekend it was so nice, I cherished every minute of it!
Hunter got to
experience sparklers for the first time and yes he did touch the hot part! We dunked his hand in the lake and the fishes kissed it better. He did tough anything hot the rest of the night! Saturday Night we were able to sit on the dock and see the
Ring of Fire which I look forward to every year. The took an
aerial shot this year which was very neat but there is something about seeing those red lights slowly pop up one by one all the way around the lake. We also were
privileged to have a fireworks barge parked right in front of our cottage and Eric
Theisen right next door (hes kind of a rock star when it come to fireworks) so we saw a really nice show. Hunter wasn't so crazy about the screaming kind he thought they were birdies crying but he enjoyed all the colors
until he drifted off to dreamland.
We spent some time out on the water too. Hunter really enjoyed going tubing the faster the better! Chase decided to give in a go too and he hopped in the tube with Hunter.
Unfortunately they hit a wave wrong and both
wiped out. They both went under but Daddy grabbed
Hunter right away. There were some tears
shed but if you ask him about it now he will just tell you about the bubbles he saw in the water. When I saw them tip all I could think was thank goodness for swimming lessons!
Daddy also took Hunter for his first
seadoo ride. Hunter wasn't too thrilled about it but maybe next time.
Hope you guys all enjoyed your Forth of July!
