Happy 4th!!!!

Our holiday weekend started with Heath and I having a "date day" on Saturday.  Taylor, our neighbor girl, babysat Alexandria while we had a day and evening out.  We did some shopping...mainly for house updates and even popped into Trader Joe's to check it out.  I couldn't leave without getting a couple bottles of the "2 buck Chuck" wine to help stock my wine fridge!  After shopping, we headed out for sushi to our normal place, Taki.  It was nice to sit in quiet and not have to worry about entertaining a little one.  We were planning on going to a movie after supper, but we both thought that we would fall asleep so opted to hit up Tonic for one of our favorites...a chocolate martini.  It was so nice out, so we sat on their patio and enjoyed conversing while we sipped on our tasty cocktail.  I'm sad to report that we were home by 8:30pm.  We are officially lame! 
Sunday we spent time outside doing garden and yard work. I probably spent a good 3 hours hoeing the garden to get rid of all the weeds...ugh, I had blisters on my hands and was so sore the next day!  Wish I could hire a garden boy!  LOL!  Heath got to get a round of golf in with a buddy at Jester Park.  Later that afternoon we went up to Slater to some friends house and had a bar-b-que.  We couldn't stick around for the fireworks since Sis is pretty programmed with her bedtime of 8pm.
The 4th of July was pretty laid back for us...we just stuck around home.  It was fun to enjoy a day with Alexandria and take in all of her cuteness!  She sure did show her patriotism off!      


Sis is ready for her first 4th.  So people...... 
lets put your hands together and get the party started....
now everyone fall down, party's over.

Al loved my bench ladder, she loves to help.
She gets intense when it come to reading books.
