We had a very relaxing July 4th! We decided to stay in town and hang around Sugar Creek CC with some of our best friends- Kyla & Wyatt! The boys played a bit of golf and the girls shopped and lounged by the pool enjoying lunch & cocktails. Then the boys joined us for a long time poolside!
After we were water logged, we grilled and took the boat out. It was a wonderful day!
Checking in on baby A!
The next day Justin and I got a few things done around the house and then decided to check out the family scene at Sugar Creek. We were one of the few fortunate couples that got an inside table to watch all the festivities. SCCC put on an awesome day full of events for the families. There were pool games and contests, huge inflatables and water slides, cotton candy and snow cones, face painting, rock climbing wall and lots of food! They even had a video arcade and dance studio set up where the kids were dancing to music videos all together. There were the most gorgeous & well behaved children all around. We really did enjoy just people watching!
After dinner, we set up our chairs and got ready for the fireworks. We were one of the very few cities around Texas that actually allowed fireworks...so we felt very fortunate! Awesome show by Sugar Creek...I hope we do it again next year.
Monday night (the 4th) I tried to go to bed early since I had to work the next several days, but about half an hour after getting into bed...it sounded like our house was being shot at! The dogs were going crazy and Justin and I met stunned in the hallway. After deciding we were not in a war zone, we stepped outside. Ta Dah!!!! Fireworks! The City of Sugar Land's firework show was just beginning and they were shooting off from the park down the street. So we sat in our driveway and watched more fireworks. Amazing show. Better than the fireworks from the lawn of the Capital Building years ago in DC! Wish I had grabbed my camera, but we all know what fireworks look like : ) After a great, LONG show, I was finally able to get back in bed and get a little sleep before my alarm went off. Happy Independence Day!
