BOOM!! BANG!!! KUR-PLUNCK!!!

So tomorrow is the BIG day!! We are going to hang out with Mark's brother and his family, cookout, and then go see some Fireworks!! This should be SO much fun with Tyler. He has NEVER seen big fireworks. Unless you include, bottle rockets? My sister-in-law called me and I guess that we are going to take Tyler and my niece to a park and a place that has fun water sprinklers. Don't know to much about it, but it sounds fun to me too!

So a few adventures have taken place with Tyler and I . He and I went for a walk, or should I say, I went for a walk and he enjoyed a nice ride in his stroller. Oh, well it didn't hurt me any that is for sure!! Anyway, on our way back from our walk the sun was shining just right and he discovered his shadow!! He was SO much fun. He kept saying, " mommy do something", wanting me to wave and act silly in my shadow, of which I did!! It was quite the show!

We then came back and got him cleaned up and got his jammies on, his favorite part of the day! About an hour later I heard the ice cream truck coming through our neighborhood and surprised him with a treat...........barely!! I ran and got my wallet and discovered that the truck had just left our street and was heading into the bigger part of our subdivision. I had him all excited and realized it might not be back. So I told him that we should sit on the porch and listen for the music and if it got close enough we would go out after it. Thankfully about 10 minutes later, it headed back down the street that runs parallel to ours. So jammies, house shoes on his feet and mine and all , I swooped him up and I went running down our street with Tyler in hand to stop the truck! He got SO excited. He was jumping up and down! I said what kind do you want and he said, " something BLUE!!" YEAH, I thought to my self and his nice clean jammies. But, your only a kid once, so he got his blue ice cream! We also got Mark one too!! Couldn't leave the BIG KID out!!

Yesterday I had to pick up a few groceries so I went to Mejiers so that Tyler could ride in the carts that play the cartoons while you shop. You pay a dollar and the proceeds go to St. Jude's. He LOVES doing this and it is another adventure that he has with his mommy!

He then came home and played in his sand box for about an hour. He loves his sand box, or as he says" his dirt box".

We are looking forward to the weekend with family as I hope that you get the chance to do so too!!

We are singing 3 times this weekend. So please pray for us that the Lord will bless. We have some GREAT needs and the Lord knows them all! We also want to be a blessing to all that attend our meetings as well. Thank you for your prayers! Have a GREAT weekend!
