Happy 4th of July!

Proud to be an American...

Thank heaven for nice, cool, sunny weather this last Friday on the fourth. Last year I was so miserable I think I changed clothes 3 times due to sweat saturation. We went to the Bothell parade where Lucy rode Scooty and Rowan rode Daddy through the streets. Deborah (Lucy's mom), Jen and I sat from the sidelines and watched as the dads with all the kids got closer and closer...ever enfringing on our fleeting moments of being child free for those 45 minutes :)

Afterwards Rowan and I went to my aunt & uncle's house for a barbeque, were I ate like a queen and had a feast of crab and brownies. I don't even know how many I had--I stopped counting at like six. Ryan came later, he was playing a show at Lake Sammamish on a dock, where he enjoyed shirmp the size of his fist. Needless to say, we ate well on the 4th.

p.s.- baby and I took the bus again, and it went much smoother.
