Happy 4th of July

We had a fun-filled 4th of July on Friday. In the morning, we took the kiddos to a parade in order to celebrate their American Freedom, but all they cared about was catching the candy!

After we came home and had lunch (including a special red/white/blue dessert that John-Paul had read about in a magazine and insisted we make) the kids took a nice nap. While they were resting their pretty heads, Phil and I cleaned the house, and when they awoke, we went to a playground.

In the evening, we had four priests over for dinner...Fr. Dave, Fr. Landry, Fr. Jay, and Mnsr. O'Connor. What a holy night! The food was great (see the picture of the yummy cake), and we finished up the evening by playing Wii. It was a nice time, and you can peruse the pictures below if you wish ;-)
