This was Ansley’s second 4th of July and we were excited to see how she would handle the fireworks this year. I don’t think last year really counts considering she wasn’t even 4months old yet and she sleep through them! We started the day off by going out to Cabela’s big 4th of July Sale, where we didn’t buy a thing. I know, we did good! J
Then we met some friends out at Lake Kohlmeier. Ansley has this sand beach thing down now and LOVES playing in the sand and water!! After hanging at the lake we had a cookout at Allison and Patrick’s house along with little Parker and another couple, Jennifer and Andrew. Lance manned the grill while I chased around after Ansley and we all played washers or a Texas form of washers. After we ate and hung out for a bit it was time for the fireworks. Ansley started to get a little fussy/whiny at this point so we just decided to watch the fireworks from our front yard. We live about 2 blocks away from the Steele County Fairgrounds where they were being shot off from which was nice. We had a great view! Ansley at first was a little nervous, but then she started to like them. She was even ‘ooohhhhing’ and ‘aaahhhhing’ at them! Here is a short video of Ansley watching the fireworks.... http://www.youtube.com/user/LGFreeman1#p/a/u/0/4oGH18HuPTA
On a side note, we figured out why Ansley was fussy/whiny….she has a slight ear infection! Poor girl….her first MN sickness! She woke us up last night with a bad cough and we had noticed the past two days she had a snotty nose so needless to say we went to the urgent care at the Mayo Clinic where they said she has a slight ear infection. Other than a snotty nose and a cough...you can't really even tell she is sick. Hopefully we caught it early enough!
Continue to pray for us and this new adventure....we love and miss everyone!!!
