The Fourth of July and Uncle Adam's Visit

Uncle Adam is selling pest control in Oklahoma so he was close enough to come join us for long Fourth of July weekend. Going from two weeks of 1 adult and 3 kids to 3 adults 3 kids was pretty awesome.

After working out at the Y, went to a local BBQ shop called Hard-Eight which was pretty awesome.  Coppell does their fireworks on the 3rd so instead of heading home we stopped and played at the splash pad next door (good thing Kherington is small enough to squeeze into Kevin's extra clothes).  As it got darker we kept waiting to see the fireworks but never did so we decided to head home.  Luckily we saw the fireworks as we were driving so we pulled over and watched.

We spent a lot of time at the pool.  Doesn't Kevin look so stylish?   Kherington is now swimming (probably still closer to doggie paddling) without her floaties. If she stands on her tippy toes and tilts her head up she can breath in the shallowest part of the pool.
On the fourth we watch the Coppell parade, played in the pool and had an All American lunch of hamburgers, corn on the cob, watermelon and layered drinks on the fourth, then watched fireworks from a lookout point up the hill from our apartment.  We could see the firework shows for 3 different cities, plus all the random ones people set off.  It was perfect. 
I totally forgot to put Jonathan in his patriotic romper (it even says USA on the back), so he wore it to church on Sunday.
