Summer Stuff 2014

I've already covered our vacation to Disneyland and the beach, swimming, and Father's Day... now on to more summer stuff... Caitie's summer camp being one of them, and my birthday too. I included the 4th of July on here as well.

Caitie started summer camp on my birthday. I just had to get a picture. As you can see, it was really bright out... (they weren't too happy about having to pose for a quick pic in the bright sun. ha)


My birthday...

I took pics of Bailey while Caitie and her daddy set up my cards and gifts. Bailey decided to do a birthday dance for me... (i think she was a bit confused on the 'birthday suit' part, hence the balloons. ha)





Here's all the stuff the girls and their daddy got for me. I got a lot of nice things. :)


We went to Cracker Barrel for dinner. I took a few pics with my cell phone, but they're not accessible right now.

I had a nice birthday. :)

As I mentioned above, Caitie went to Summer Camp... there were fun activities, crafts, field trips, fun with friends, etc. In this pic Caitie was wearing her camp shirt for a field trip. They went on several field trips... a movie, Amazing Jakes, etc. Yes, I took another pic... and yes, it was bright out... (they were excited about having another pic taken in the bright sun... not... ha)


We went to the Peoria Sports Complex Celebration for July 4th this time. It was different being there for the activities and then seeing the fireworks up close; we usually see the fireworks from a distance.

The girls before going in...


The girls playing in a bounce house. They had several bounce houses, some with water slides.


Later on it was time for the fireworks show... we went in the stands for that. As you can see, some people were on the field as well.


We were up close for the fireworks...


It was fun, but we probably won't go back next year.

There is more summer stuff to come, so stay tuned...
