For Sake of Memories.

Independence Day was a whirlwind of a day. We woke up. Then we started cooking. We invited a friend over for a celebration meal and didn't realize he wouldn't be able to come for dinner so instead we were having lunch with him. I cooked so fast and was multi-tasking on everything! Perry was helping in the fashion of watching Grant the whole time. Then we went to the store, got a couple little fireworks, came home, finished up lunch and had our friend over. The meal was yummy. We had teriyaki chicken grilled, pasta salad, which I think I might just go have some right now, and grilled corn. The guest said he had never had better corn. I was thrilled of course. Then we had our traditional stars and stripes angel food cake thing with blueberries and strawberries. Yum. Then when we were done eating our other friend and his cousin came over to pick something up and we invited them to eat also. Then when they left Grant was up from his nap. Perry washed all the delayed dishes from the whole week of sickness and achiness and finally we were able to relax. We did FHE and lit Fireworks. Grant threw a couple of the popping ones and then really didn't like them anymore. We only had about 10 things to light and Grant was very upset by the end. Good thing we didn't go to any show. He would not have stood the noises and fire. I had fun though. We put him down and just enjoyed a relaxing evening. I cuddled with my hubby and finally got a tinge  of "I'll miss you" for going on my long trip soon. I'm really excited. These next couple of week will have at the end many videos and pictures with my family. See ya then!
