Happy Fourth of July!


We have been celebrating our freedom from the oppression of rain! Finally a weekend with perfect weather. We managed to swim, eat, swim, eat some more, go to the Farmer's Market (where Eamon stole a handful of green beans), buy some flowers to liven up our trashy yard, finally do some MUCH-NEEDED yard work, swim some more, and just generally enjoy the long weekend. Here are the boys looking dapper for a BBQ on the 4th, in the ONLY moment I could get them without their swimsuits on! Liam looks like his usual nut-ball self, but Colin and Eamon, in particular, look deceptively sweet! Colin, not surprisingly, is very into flags this year and learning all about "The United States of America" which he must say in its entirety everytime he mentions the 4th at all. Now he wants to know why people still have flags up "if the party was yesterday?" Apparently, we haven't been doing our civic, patriotic duty with them and they want to know why we don't have a huge flagpole in our yard...
