I love July!





Virginia rode in our VBS float on the 4th of July. The theme was Rainforest Adventure and it just wrapped up on Friday. The entire chuch was transformed into a rainforest which I believed made the church look a whole lot more interesting. The float shows just a sampling of what we did. Virginia had a great time waving to everyone and saying "Happy 4th of July!" By the time we made it downtown, she had stripped down to only her underware... in front of hundreds of people. We had a great day celebrating including a cookout at Grandmom's house, ice cream downtown, and dancing at the bandstand to the Cate Park Band. We didn't make it to the fireworks... our little girl told us she was tired and wanted to go home after dancing up a storm.





It has been beautiful weather and perfect days for July. My hydrangeas are blooming, we have been busy picking rasberrys and making strawberry jam. Why I love NH so much in July.

Those rasberries and strawberries look soooo yummy!

Ha! I would have loved to have seen Virgina strip down to her skivvies during the parade. That will surely be a story to remember!

We just had a jar of Hudson strawberry jam with our breakfast this morning -- yum -- and thought about you all. Can't wait to try the 2008 batch.
