Fantastic 4th of July- Part 1

We made our annual trip to Austin for the 4th of July again this year.  You would think we would make it up there more often since its not that far, but timing never seems to work out.  At least we always have the 4th of July long weekend to look forward to!

Anywho, we had the whole weekend planned as usual.  Seems we never have enough time to do everything we want.  Saturday we had a much needed relaxing day at the pool and hanging out at home.  After doing my workout and then walking the dogs...yep, I worked out on my Vacation!  Go me!!  Ok, back to the story at hand.  Judy and the girls joined us at the pool.  Those girls have grown up so fast!  Steph is going to be a senior this coming year.  CRAZY!  All of the girls are very athletic and so beautiful!  After some fun swim time with Katelyn...back and forth between the baby pool and the big pool, Chris and I got lucky and were able to enjoy the pool kid free for a couple of hours....thanks Nana!!  After some pool time we all headed to the house for a big fajita dinner and games.  Nothing better than tasty mexican food after pool time.  It was great to spend time with Judy and the girls.  Its fun to compare stores of their childhood with Katelyn.

Concentrating on squishing bugs!

 This wasp or whatever attacked the giant spider.  While kinda disturbing, it was very interesting to watch.  The wasp ending up killing the spider...crazy huh?

 She found the skittles and figured out how to turn the knob to get some whenever she wanted!  We had to hide it when she wasn't looking so she didn't eat anymore.  She's a candy princess!

This is the 2nd mama dove to use mom's plant for her nest.  There were 2 eggs there.  Katelyn loved seeing the eggs and talking to the mama bird.
