Fourth of July Weekend

We had such a fun fourth of July weekend. Mom and Dad Stiver came down Thursday evening to spend the weekend with us. We had a chance to go play tennis(thanks to Grandma Janet for babysitting). There was lots of card playing and Scrabble(unfortunately Dad Stiver was able to successfully defend the "Stiver Scrabble Trophy" 3 times in a row!!! So it stays in Ohio).
Friday night we invited our good friends Matt and Lauren and my stepmom, Janet over for a cookout. We grilled burgers and brats and enjoyed the evening together.
Saturday we had plans to go to the Indy Indians baseball game but it was rained out so we'll have to use the tickets another time. Instead we ended up going out to eat at Olive Garden and hanging out at home playing games, which was great.
Sunday night Brian, Joel and myself went downtown Indy to watch fireworks. We ate out, walked around the canal and hung out at White River Park to watch the fireworks. Joel loved them...he kept saying "boom, boom!" Brian bought him a light saber that he loved. It was a great holiday!!!

Love all the pics. The backwards hat on Joel is too cute. :)
