Ashland Trip - the 5th of July

So you may have noticed that we spent the 4th of July mostly driving. I mean, of course we had cute red white and blue outfits for that day, but we saved the real 4th of July outfits for the 5th of July. (it totally makes sense.) Anyways, here are some pics from the 5th of July. :)

this truck was at the house! the kids loved it and were sad to leave it. pushing it around the wrap-around deck was awesome.

playing washers at the house in the backyard.

lunch at Callahan's Lodge

it was really hot!

Aron would toss the ball, and Blake would toss Ethan so that Ethan would do a header with the ball. Ethan loved it.

after lunch everyone went home and napped. or, at least I did. when I woke up, a couple of my mom's cousins and their families had stopped by. Pure coincidence, they were in Ashland that same day, so they stopped by the house to say hi to everyone.

not only did the house have a dump truck, it had a small tricycle. pretty awesome. the kids couldn't reach the pedals, but they sure loved being pushed around!

duplos. who doesn't love duplos? my mom bought some and brought them to Ashland.
