Pioneer Day

We had a pretty fun day today. Jaxon went swimming with Grandma Drake, his uncles & aunt, and all his cousins, Millie stayed home with Grandpa Drake and Kent and I went to see Batman: The Dark Knight. I actually liked it, Kent thought it was okay but he could have survived without seeing it. Then we went over to Aunt Joys and had a BBQ - it was very tasty and we ended the evening with some fireworks.


Everyone waiting for the FIREWORKS - yeah!!


Jaxon was really excited for the "show" to start

Millie & me.....Mills liked watching the fireworks.

This firework was called Rock -a- Baby - it kind of rolled around as it went off. It was pretty cool!

Kent and Sherman (his other wife!!) messing around

Not sure why Millie's hand is down my shirt!?!?!

Poor little Millie cut her finger just before we were heading home. Kent was holding a can of pop and Millie reached for it, and her finger just caught the can as Kent was trying to move it out of her way! It was bleeding pretty good - she hardly even cried but i felt so bad for her.

On the ride home she pulled off her band aid and got blood all over herself again....in her hair, in her ear, on her legs, on her clothes & car seat.....so sad!!
