Celebrating the 4th

After a bit of rain, we had a really nice fourth of July.  Here's the sunset.  We had lunch at the SIL's and swam in their pool.  Then we headed over to another BBQ with friends.  The kids got absolutely filthy, as everything was wet - Littleman and his friend, D, got WILD on the trampoline, I have a little video clip to show you.  They must have jumped/played for nearly an hour...but after filming only 23 seconds, it just felt wrong.  I couldn't stop them, though.  They were having such fun.  Later, they got to hold sparklers, briefly.  And the evening ended with fireworks and chocolate cupcakes. My kind of night! 

 

OH, we also sold the Jeep Liberty yesterday, yes, on the fourth.  The guy really wanted to buy it.  And today, Papabear was able to buy a Mini Cooper.  He really wanted a convertible, but did you know that two weeks ago they just stopped making them??? (Until March of 2009, anyway.)  We searched dealerships within a four to five hour drive, even in Oklahoma, but to no avail.  SO, Papabear had to settle for a sun roof.  I'm happy to report, though, that they had the color he wanted, British Racing Green, AND it is super charged...or has a super charger...I don't know.  Whatever.  He's happy.  It's a zippy little thing and WAY more fuel efficient than the Jeep.
