Independence Day Photos

I promised to post pictures from our trip out to Lisle for Independence Day. There are no pictures of the fireworks themselves, but Katie did sit on my lap and point and say "Hee hee!" as she watched the explosions, so I think she enjoyed them. :)

Lazy Weekend

Despite a great deal of running around, it doesn't feel like I got much done this weekend. Maybe that's what a holiday weekend's for.

samwinolj and Bonnie came by this evening and we grilled some bratwurst. Other than that, we picked up some new sandals for Katie, who has just about outgrown the current pair. I assembled the new telescope that's been sitting here since last fall. And Sam helped me clean several years worth of bug corpses out of the kitchen fluorescent light fixture before leaving.

At some point, I'm going to have to finish the taxes.

But not this weekend. It was Independence Day. :)
