Independence Day

It's an exciting Sunday night!  We have Ariel home for a couple of nights!  It's also the night before Aden's 18th birthday!!!

Last Saturday was the 4th of July!  I took the beach cart to the beach at 8am!  It was already hot out. 
I helped my neighbors set up the whole campsite including a grill!
A lot of other people were setting up too.

The moon!
That was a lot of work!
A quick pic from camp.
I went to see Jason at the water park.  
Aron and Eden were having fun!
We finally made it to the beach.  It was packed!

The boys had fun with Steven.
Like son...
Like mother!
Rocket Man!
It was only cool by the water.  We had to stand there.


We ate with the neighbors.
Then we left.  
Steven came with us.  
It was hot!
Pool time!


Eli wanted to make a cake for the 4th.


Cute!

Back to the beach for the fireworks.
Random giant fireworks all around us. 




Afterwards, we headed back.
Meanwhile in Nashville!

Junior's Donuts are Back!

Last Thursday, we went to the Margate Farmers Market at Steve & Cookies.  Wew got some yummy goodies!

I always get this pizza.
Julia stopped by with Dixie.  
We went to the library so Amy could print out worksheets for the boys.  That's was happens when your mom is a teacher!

A quick camp pic. 
We ran into Margot working.  
Cute shirt!
Pool time!

The twins and Steven were a little nuts.  
Unbeknownst to us, a few blocks away, the NBA trophy was at Betty's!
It was nice at the shore.  
Super hot at home.  The shore was the place to be.  
I made chicken cutlets for dinner.  We were tired of eating out.  
We hung outside with the neighbors.  



That night we watched Independence Day which came out 30 years ago!  I went to see it the night before I took the Bar Exam!
Last Friday, I went to Sonny's, the new Juniors.  

OMG I remember these donuts.
What to get?!?!  Of course the chocolate glazed.  That was always my favorite.  

Eli enjoyed his!
Oh yeah!
The heat finally caught up with us.  It was going into the 90's.  Too hot to be outside.  I took the twins to the indoor water park at the Showboat in Atlantic City.  
The roof was open!  So it was really hot in there.  We didn't escape the heat after all.  

Noah did well surfing.  

They had fun.  
It got hot!
Ariel went to a minor league baseball game.  
They took cute pics.  

Have a great weekend!
