Fourth of July with Grandparents!

Well we have returned from our huge trip to PA/OH/NJ!! It was a long trip for sure! But really, with everyone we visited, I just felt like I wished we could see them longer. So it was good. I think we were all happy to return home in our own ways. The kids are re-adjusting to routines and bedtime and things like that.

So - our first week was spent in Point, PA - near Bedford - with Luke's parents and we got to see all of his sisters and their husbands at various times. The Fourth of July we spent at his parents' in-progress home on a hill. We cooked over the open fire for lunch and dinner and ate in what will be the dining room. Then we all headed to the river for fireworks. It rained a bit, but the fireworks still happened. Emma loved them and Caleb fell asleep - again.

We also enjoyed trips to swim in the lake at Shawnee State Park near their home. It was, as usual, a great time with family.
