The Happy Birthday America Weekend

We had a nice holiday weekend with lots of low key fun for the kids. Anna and Sam went on a trike ride for two. Anna has to steer (or be the driver as she likes call it) the trike in order for the "for two" part to work. She does not quite have this down yet ... so it takes lots of "helpers" to go on a ride.



Sam loves to ride on the trike. He puts his hands on the handle bars and tries to put his feet on the petals. I think Sam may end up being "the driver" sooner than Anna thinks.



Saturday afternoon, while Nana, Anna, and I went to the fabric store. (I can not wait to photograph what Nana is making ... so fun and great. I am going to keep it a surprise until "they" are finished). Sam and Charles played in the yard.



Anna was pretty excited to see the fireworks Pop pop's got her. He bought a large box of stuff that would be fun, not frighting, for a three year old. This is Anna all excited to see them while listening to the sparkler safety lecture.



This is the last of the fireworks are fun before they burn you photo.



She had a spark that landed on her pj's and burned a small hole in them. She is fine; however, very upset by the whole event. Like a trooper, Anna got a little burn cream, a few band-aids, and a Popsicle and then she was ready to watch some more fireworks.

Looks like you had a great time, except for your granddaughter getting burned of course!
