Firecrackers and Parties

On the 4th, we celebrated Kate's birthday with cake, family, friends and downtown fireworks (oh, and many hundreds of mosquitos that ate Claire and me to shreds...they never get Preston or Kyle).  Preston informed us before we left that he would not be interested in watching "fireworks" because they do those at the Cardinals baseball games and they are too loud.  He would, however, be alright with "firecrackers."  So as we sat at the RV campground where Kate's parents were staying on their summer visit to St. Louis, I asked Preston if he liked the fireworks by the Arch.  He said he did like the firecrackers very much.



We were all very excited to attend Yuri and Kye's circus themed birthday party at the City Museum.  Claire loved getting her face painted.  Her request...a green car!  Preston loved the indoor skate park that wasn't really being used with skateboards.


A very hot, indoor time kind of month for us.  No pool pass, and so humid and uncomfortable that even the kids wanted to stay and play in the basement or just in the house. Here they are lazin' around on one of our 100 degree days.
