Happy 4th of July!

We didn't do anything for the 4th today.....we will tomorrow. Today the kids played outside all day and Daddy took advantage of the free day off by catching up on some home projects.

Patrick was quite helpful today. He had a really hard time understanding why he couldn't help Daddy finish staining the decks. He had to be threatened with a time-out to get him to stop picking up the paint brush and coming up with really cute reasons why he could stain. Later in the day we went to Grandpa's to help set up a tent and clean clams for tomorrow's 4th of July clambake. Patrick was very enthusiastic about cleaning clams with Daddy and Aunt Ann.
Patrick played really nicely with Elizabeth today, truly being a big brother.

On our ride home from Grandpa's Patrick was enjoying feeling the wind in the car! Notice the hair......
