Party Crashers!

This past weekend we have been busy little bees. On the 4th we took Reid to his first 4th of July parade in our neighborhood. We walked one block behind our house on the main street where the parade went through. It was cute, very small and local feeling. While we were there we saw our neighbors and they invited us over to their place for an evening BBQ. While we were in the house doing some cleaning, our other neighbors a few doors down came by to invite us over for a BBQ and cornhole tournament at their house in the early afternoon. Since we don't know a lot of people in Chicago, we went to both parties and had a great time. Reid was pretty good and stayed up until 9:30pm!! Party animal! Can you believe that on July 4th, we were chilled so much that all the women at the party had sweatshirts and blankets wrapped around their legs! IT WAS AWESOME WEATHER!!!! I am so glad to be out of that hot, humid, Atlanta! We hope you all had a good 4th as well! This is the outfit that his Great Grandma Opal sent him to wear. We didn't get a picture of him in it before he spit up down the front, so I laid the shirt over him, you get the idea.....


Andy gave Obie a hair cut, and after he was half way done I went outside to check how Obie was cooperating and to my horror, Andy was mutilating him. I guess the guard would not stay on the razor, but instead of stopping and getting it done professionally Andy decided to trim it without a guard. The picture does not even come close to showing you how horribly embarrassing this haircut is. I do not want to even take him for a walk, I am afraid I will get turned in for animal abuse. Not that Obie would want to even go for a walk, he has lost that spring in his step. Poor thing. I think I will half shave Andy's head and see how he feels....

Happy Anniversary to Erin & Jason and Jamie & Chris!
