HAPPY 4TH OF JULY!!!

We made the long trek down to the lake of the ozarks for the forth and had a great time!

The drive there was easy... We left Tues after work and stayed at mom and dad's. They were wonderful and volunteered to bring Lefty down so we could pick up Grandma, after we took a short tour of St. Louis. I was surprised how easy the drive was, only had to stop a few times and usually we were able to coordinate them with gas stops.

The Hermes' were gracious enough to allow us to stay at there house...Thanks!!! And Mike was wonderful and came to pick us up so we had a chance to hang out at some lake side bar with Cindi and the girls before they headed pack to Bloomington.

Cheryl was down at the lake as well, so Grandma stayed with her. We were able to meet up with them for breakfast a few times and watched the fireworks on the lake.

As usual, Ron had fun with the camera...

We also had fun testing out the video camera again... if he puts together another video, I'll add that as well.

The ride to St. Louis was easy and we stayed the night with Grandma... Love her new apartment. The rest of the drive to Chicago, wasn't as fun... Ron was great and stopped VERY frequently for me... Thanks honey!!!!

On the baby front, Suzie, Ron and Mom were lucky enough to catch the little girl in full movement mode... She wouldn't cooperate for anyone else though!
