The Movies

The Rave
Here we are
Waiting for the movie to start

After the movie ended
What was left of the popcorn



We went to the free Summer movie at the Rave. Todd got the day off and joined us. We saw "Horton Hears a Who". It was a great movie and we all enjoyed it. Todd and Gates loved the popcorn. They ate (the girls and I did have a little) an entire large tub of popcorn at ten in the morning.

Our visit to the Library to meet Spiderman

From this sign to the meeting of Spiderman it was 1 hour. That is longer than we wait to meet the Easter Bunny or even Santa.
One hour later Gates is running away from Spiderman. Ella and Mady Claire are also scared. Ella finally gives into her fear of Spiderman and takes a picture with him. Notice Ella's expression on her face...priceless!


Spiderman signing autographs.

This is as close as Gates and Mady Claire wanted to be to Spiderman.

Our family after celebrating the 4th



We went to Todd's Aunt Paulette's house to celebrate the July 4th holiday. We grilled out tons of food and even fried up tons of vegetables this year. Boy were we stuffed! The kids enjoyed playing outside with the cousins while Todd and I relaxed in some lawn chairs. We hade a great 4th and hope you all did too!
