Happy Belated Birthday, America!

So, we're a little late posting our 4th of July wishes. We didn't do much over the holiday weekend - just a lot of relaxing and enjoying the weather. John dragged me to a water park in the forest preserve, and even though my attitude was terrible about it, we had a really fun time. In fact, we might go back this weekend for John's birthday.

Also, our friends Kate and Brandon from Kansas City were in town visiting Kate's brother, so we met up with them for dinner and drinks. It's always fun seeing good ol' college friends. Now that nearly everyone is married, we don't have weddings as an excuse to get together. So we definitely need to take a trip to KC soon to catch up with our college friends. Hope everyone had a fun and safe 4th!
