Happy 4th of July!
We hope everyone had a great weekend. We had fun, no fireworks for us because Shep hates loud noises and I assume that fireworks are the loudest loud noise you can get, so we spared him. Which, I was bummed about because I really like fireworks, and the 4th of July for that matter. We went to a parade, and they had the flags presented by the soldiers, and I have to admit that I got a little teary eyed. I know, not a big shocker to those of you that know me because ALOT of things make me teary eyed. :> I do appreciate all the sacrifices that have been made for our country and our freedom's, we are truly a nation under God and I think we tend to take that for granted. I have to say that it really makes me angry when I see all the media and clips of people making fun of President Bush. Not because I think he is the greatest president or anything, but because he IS the President of our country none the less. How does it look when we are tearing him to shreds in our OWN country? Sorry, just venting, it really does bother me though, we should respect him because of the position he holds, even if we do not agree with all of his decisions. ANYWAY.. :> I am grateful for the country that I live in and for all of those that have fought and still fight for our freedom. We love and appreciate you. THANK YOU!
Now that I have vented. :> Updates..... Shep is crawling, sitting up, screaming VERY high pitched when he wants something or does not like what he has, eating like a horse, and shooting up teeth left and right (which he is NOT a fan of). He loves his big sister and she makes him laugh all the time. Adee is getting MORE feisty everyday and making me wonder what the H... I am going to do when she gets to be a teenager........ it's all you Sam!!!! She was in her room the other day and I walked in to see her with her 4-wheeler helmet on, a lei, socks on her hands and a CD in her mouth - she said she was dressing up to make me laugh. (yes, see pic..) She is a funny and STRONG - WILLED little girl. She is taking swimming lessons and the other mom asked me how many lessons she has been in because she is not afraid of the water at all - I laughed and told her none, she is not afraid of ANYTHING. Please Shep, be more cautious. Gotta love em! Hope all is great for everyone and that you are all enjoying your summer. Ash.

and i agree -- i get tired of everyone making fun of bush, too. it's getting old.
Dito on Bush! It's gotten so old... but I hate the media all together, so what are ya gonna do?
Loved the dress up photo! Too cute! And Shep sleeping... I don't think there is anything cuter than a sleeping baby. We've decided to stick around this weekend, you guys still coming.
So Echo is getting married. Who to? We have run into her numerous times over the past few years. We actually lived in the same apartment building for a while. She is a good gal. Anyway, some one needs to tag me, I am way more interesting than Ashlee.
