Chocolate milk with a fireworks straw is the ONLY way to enjoy Independence Day!

Our neighbors gave H the sparkler! He liked it, was mesmerized by it, but I think also a little weary of the flames.

Daddy and H on the 4th.

HENRY's 20's Dapper Dan Doo ...and newest purchase...swords for learning the jedi trade. We've been really busy these last few weeks...lots of Sacramento trips to see family and throw the party of the century for Sherie's life celebration. It's been an emotional roller coaster and reminder that it is the JOURNEY not the destination that fulfills us. Henry is halfway through this summer's swim lessons and is showing that his aptitude for the water is inhereted..he loves it and does great. Lots of fun songs to sing while practicing big arms like a fan and kicking all the while. They've done face in the water, bubbles then ears then bubbles then ears. Setting up for the breathe exercise to come this week. Never afraid, thou he dislikes the cool morning breeze...next year I will try for a later morning lesson. Here's a few pics Jean
