4th of July

We enjoyed a great 4th of July with my side of the family in Red Wing. Friday night we hung out with my mom, brother, and sister and shot off some great fireworks that may or may not have been legal! Saturday we added more family members with my Aunt Sally, Uncle Joe, Cousin Rob and his son Aidan to the mix. We had a lot of fun playing lawn games, hot tubbing, and of course seeing fireworks at night (or at least I saw the fireworks while Eric stayed home with a sleeping Robert).

An update on Robert's bump...we think it probably was the cellulitis and not the cyst. The bump got a lot bigger on Saturday but then this morning it popped and I've never been so happy to see pus. I e-mailed our doctor waiting to hear his thoughts but hoping that all we have to do is finish the medicine and all will be good.

Other events from the week included going to another one of Eric's band concerts (only has 3 more for the summer!), closing on our 2nd home that we remodeled but then got stuck with it a lot longer than planned thanks to our wonderful economy, and Eric reactivating his real estate license. So with all of that our trip to Red Wing and Robert's bump it was a long week and we're looking forward to what we hope will be a quieter week.
