Happy 4th of July!

Happy Independence Day! To celebrate, our little family made the journey to Coors Field to watch the Rockies play. Afterall, what is more American than baseball?



This was Rylan's first (& likely only) game of this season. He did a great job but we take our baseball pretty seriously and Rylan was a SERIOUS distraction. He clapped and danced and cooed through 8 innings. Then the heat, noise, and lack of nap set in and so we wisely made our exit. Luckily we made it home just in time to watch 7 more innings on tv. After much struggle and consternation the Rockies took the Giants after 15 innings!



At the end of a great day the little guy went down early and Ben and I enjoyed a nice steak off the grill. Currently it sounds as though the house is being shelled...but the boy still sleeps!


Today (and everyday) I am grateful for my home, my family, my independence, and my country. Happy 4th.
