Happy 4th of July!

Pat has to close tonight, but we were able to hit a fireworks display on Tuesday. It was fun relaxing wait for the fireworks show to begin. Pat was great with the kids, walking around with them and trying to keep them entertained. It was dang hot outside for me. When the breeze would blow through, you think you would have relief but no, the air was just hot. It felt like a hair dryer to me. The kids spent their hard earned allowances on really cheap light swords. Even 14 year old Joseph. The girls have been cleaning their room since Monday. I refuse to help them. I need to teach them a lesson, but with each day, it's getting harder and harder. I just want them to learn to put their things away instead of shoving it in the closet or the end of their beds. They are in there again today. I am working on some laundry and I'll have Joseph grill us hamburgers for dinner. Nothing too exciting today. I hope you all have a safe holiday.
