Bowling 4th of July

Happy 4th of July we thought we'd get up at the crack of dawn and head out to see the Balloons and get to the Parade and find ourselves a good sit, after getting home from getting Austin at EFY and home from the BBQ the night before we were TIRED OUT... Not the day we thought when Mel woke up at 3 am with the flu.. So Troy headed out late to get the kids from Grumpy's and Nana's sleep over they were late to the parade but they went and thought will catch the end of it! They then headed to Cafe Rio and called to see if sick mamma would like any?? No Thanks... I said to Troy don't feel quilty just go and be gone all day for all I care right now, I'm thinking I'm going to die with the HEADACHE I was dealing with... I love my parents yard but I guess ALLERGIES got the best of me and I was feeling it from head to toe with a massive sinus infection, the flu, and now what?? A pee-infection and yeast YIKES what the heck???? So they decided to carry on the tradition since we had it so many years with the Bitters side to head out bowling and start our own traditions... The kids had a great time and I guess Missy came out the WINNER!! Boy did the BOYS (especially competitive Austin) not like that....They came home and by now I could somewhat lift my head and we straightened up the house for Sunday and headed down to the Neighborhood Firework show... CHIDESTERS its not the same without you... We are GRATEFUL for our FREEDOM!!
