Happy 4th of July!

Last Friday, 6/29, I came down with a really bad cold or something.  Runny nose, sore throat, bodyaches...  I pulled myself together to go to Phoenix the next day to surprise our niece Ashley for her 10th birthday.  We went to Peter Piper Pizza and then swimming back at her grandparents.  Sunday I was so miserable so we did not go to church. 

Yesterday I took Nathan to Reid Park Zoo.  We got to see another peacock baby.  With all of those peacocks running around the zoo you would think there would be a lot more babies.


Last night we went to the "patriotic" service at church.  They had a little hot dog dinner beforehand.  We went, but I think it was a mistake.  It was very crowded and we ended up sitting in a small room with some kids and one other adult (eating our dinner on little desks).  We have gone to this church for like 3 years, but we still hardly know anybody there.  I guess it is our fault because we are not outgoing and we only go to Sunday morning service since it takes us 45 minutes to get to church.  Anyway, I felt very uncomfortable that night.  The church service itself was nice, though.  Nathan was not very cooperative during the dinner and during the service he started pushing again in the toddler room.  He was doing so good at church the last few times, but then he started pushing again. 

Today we brought Paul's car in for an oil change and some other maintenance.  Then we attempted to go to the Desert Museum.  It started downpouring so we turned around and decided to go to the zoo instead.  We left just in time for the rain to start again.  We picked up the car and went home.  Later tonight we hope to watch fireworks from our back balcony.  Nathan is taking a nap so maybe he will be up to see them this year.  I just hope they do not get rained out.
