4th of July - Monsoon Style

We spent the 4th of July weekend in Lubbock. I am not quite sure how much rain we got that weekend, but it was ridiculous! But we are not ruined by rain and managed to have a great weekend! The drive down & back was great - mostly because we got to spend it with our friends Brian & Kelli! They also have family in Lubbock so we car pooled. Lots of good laughs & great conversation for the 10-12 hours of car time. Definitely the best way to go! Saturday we hit Rosa's and then the movie theater to see Grown Ups. Great movie! Then Saturday night we had a cook out at Susan & Andrew's. Needless to say it was more of any indoor cookout due to the rain. Sunday morning Chris & I attended worship at Experience Life. It was phenomenal! We really enjoyed every bit of it! Looking forward to going again next time we are home. Sunday afternoon & evening we hung out with my mom & Joe. We had spaghetti for dinner and then chocolate rolls for dessert! Susan & Andrew's neighborhood is perfect for fireworks because they sit just beyond the city limits. We did a few of our own but mostly just watched everyone elses. Drew & Brooklyn neither one were big fans of all the load noises and the dark - but I am sure they will grow to love it! Monday we slept in, had lunch with the fam again and hit the road. Its never long enough - but at least we can drive back anytime we like :)
