4th of July


Happy 4th of July!  We had a great day celebrating close to home and exploring our new neighborhood.  The day started with an exercise and coffee walk with BiBi and Zee.  Then, after a nap and some more unpacking, we headed down to the recreation center where the neighborhood was hosting a fair.  There were games, music and a petting zoo that Riley loved exploring.  

We pet a baby cow, dodged the horns on goats, chased some chickens and steered clear of goose teeth.  Riley tried to grab onto everyones fur but the animals seemed to be used to it so they didn't mind.

The afternoon was spent at BiBi and Zee's house relaxing and smoking dinner on the new grill.  We had a delicious dinner and then came back to our house for fireworks and brownies.  We had a great view of the fireworks from our front yard and are already planning a party for next year to show off our great spot.

Hope everyone had a great day of relaxation and celebration!

I think that Aunt Stacey's FAVORITE place to go was the petting zoo. Her favorite animal was the sheep and she was determined to "explore" that sheep's nose! Luckily, Riley may enjoy many of his aunt's OTHER good traits, one of which is not sheep noses!

It was a special day spent together as a family. I loved every minute of it, even when the doggies joined us for dinner.

Glad you're in the neighborhood!

Love,
BiBi
