On Friday (July 4th), we enjoyed Ted's for dinner(not that the kids ate) and after some dessert and a bonfire at my mom's/sister's we headed over to Brookfield Country Club for some fireworks. It was extra exciting because last year we didn't go because the rain, and the two previous years Sage had fallen asleep while waiting for them to begin. Well, finally we had success! Not that the kids were a fan of the loudness of the fireworks, but they intently watched in amazement.
Saturday, me and the kids went to my Dad's new house for a nice dinner. Sage got to test out the hot tub. Aside from one slip under water she enjoyed it. She even sat on E.J's lap and had a conversation with him...amazing. The kids played with the new pug puppy, Lucy, she's adorable. 
Sunday, the kids and Jay went to the tri-five car show in Clarence in the morning while I was at work. Then in the afternoon Sage and I drove to Rochester. After our 1hr 20min car drive we went swimming at Aunt Cherry's and had a nice dinner. It was great to see my "Rochester relatives", I hadn't seen Heather in 10yrs. It was great to catch up, and reminisce about old times. Sage was absolutely terrified of the water at first. She had never been in any pool other than a baby pool. She had a death grip on me at first. Then after dinner when she went in again she was courageous enough to use a floaty boat, and her and Bella got to play. I was amazed that after she was done using the boat, she wanted to go in with just her swimmies. She did, and she moved and swam around the pool so well all by herself, I was so proud of her! She is already asking to go back (which I would love to do). Too bad gas prices are so high, I don't even want to think about what that little trip cost me. Of course, now I am craving a in-ground pool....ahhh, I can dream, right?
