Despite not being in Henefer for the 4th of July, we had a super fun Independence weekend. I took the kids to the Lakewood Parade on Saturday (Eric had to work) and they absolutely loved it. Luckily, there was another parade in Dallas, in Highland Park on Monday that Eric could come to with us. We got great seats near the beginning of the route and were showered with candy and toys from all the floats. The weather was also agreeable--not too hot. After the parade, we took the kids to IHOP for a pancake breakfast. They thought they had died and gone to heaven. That afternoon we had a good long refreshing swim in our pool followed by a relaxing evening.
What a wonderful weekend to remember the special people who do and have served our country so bravely.
Happy 4th!! Those pictures of Ethan sleeping are HILARIOUS!!! Jack misses him so bad, but feels very lucky every night when he gets to sleep in his bed :)
Overheard: Libby, playing pretend with dolls: "I don't want to be a princess wife anymore! I'm gonna take this wedding ring and throw it in the garbage!" Natalie: Do I have a feminist on my hands?
Ethan, passing by restaurants in the car: "Mom, I miss fast food!"
Libby, playing pretend: Mom, what do Ollie and I need to do in order to be ninja pigs?"
Ethan: "I can't wait to go check outside to see if there is any new born snow!"
We are Eric and Natalie Pelfrey. We've been married for 7 years and we have a energetic little boy, Ethan (5), and a sweet and stubborn little girl, Libby (3) and a chunky, precious baby boy, Oliver (1). Eric is workin' his life away as an attorney in the Big D, and I am going crazy as mommy. We are very blessed and very happy!
