Before I get to the 4th, I will focus on the 3rd. The 3rd, was B & I's 9 month dating anniversary. I will admit... I remembered it a few days prior, but on the actual day, I forgot. But he showed up at my door with these lovely flowers and a smooch. What a lucky girl I am. I love you B :) 
Ok... Now for the 4th. We went to the Cadd's, who are family friends of the Hodson's. They have a great home on Lake Sammamish and throw a 4th of July party each year with food, boating, and an awesome fireworks show. I felt excited to be a part of it this year.
Anyhoo... B & I made chocolate covered strawberries for the party. And I only cried once in the process... THAT is a successful baking experience. Plus, NOW I know the proper way to melt chocolate. (Thanks Brenda)
Aren't they lovely? We know.
I love him.
I love us.
Dear pre-tubing Brett,

Dear pre-tubing Brett, ... Don't do it... your back is going to hurt all day Sunday.
Love, Lisa

Ok... I realize this doesn't really "fit" into the 4th of July theme I have going here, but I saw this at the Hodson's last night and I immediately was taken back to childhood. We had this exact same Fisher Price set when I was growing up. With the green car and those same people. I remember I always used to use that bald dad because it looked like my own dad (Sorry Dad, when I was young I associated all bald men, even toys apparently, with you.) I sat down and played for a moment, it's true.
It was a wonderful weekend :) Bring on the week... :/
