Happy 5th of July!






No, that is not a type-o in the title, we just had to celebrate on the 5th down here because of some severe storms. We had a pretty fun weekend thus far despite some crazy weather. On Friday morning we went downtown Apex for the 4th of July festival & parade. It was a lot of fun, but man was it hot. Although it was only in the mid 90’s, it was extremely humid. On Friday evening we went up to Lifetime Fitness and swam for awhile and then found our place on the lounge chairs for the fireworks. Unfortunately a wicked storm rolled in and hit about 30 minutes before start time. We got tons of rain and some wild wind, thunder & lightning. Saturday we went to the movies in the middle of the day. We didn’t know it, but while in the theatre, we got hit with another wild storm. More wind, rain, thunder & lightning. When we got home, a neighbors tree was down from the lightning and we had 6 shingles from our roof in the back yard and debris all over the front door. That must have been some intense wind. Last night we went back up to lifetime to watch the fireworks from the parking lot. They started the show about 30 minutes early because we got hit with another storm. Not sure what we’re gonna do today. Maybe just chill out. Owen needs to get some rest so he is ready for 2nd grade tomorrow.

‘Til next time…
