July Happenings #1

July we celebrated fourth of July in Birmingham. It was very good for the soul to get back to the place that our kids especially identify as "home" and reconnect with family and a few friends. July we continued to swim, visited Columbia before Megan and Emma went back to Texas to welcome Thomas home as well as some day trips while Stephen did hospital visits (we squeezed in some fun), Cow Appreciation Day for the 8th year (that ended with us in the ER to x-ray Jo's hand because a big kid pushed him down the play place), and celebrated my 34th birthday with a day at the beach.
