Happy Birthday America!

Good old-fashioned entertainment was in store on the 4th of July at Jen and Thatcher's house! Highlights: Mia & Jen throwing the food away too soon for my tastes, Gavin telling me I shouldn't eat a sandwich that a fly landed on after I tried to play it cool and had devoured it, How guarded is Rich?, fireworks are legal in Gardena (or at least until 10pm), Lola's ensemble, Riley's cute poses while watching Toy Story, peppercini-mayo-wheat thin sandwich, Thatcher stashing half the fireworks in the closet for the grand finale, daredevil cars driving through our street fireworks show, hiding from the neighbors with Jen Mia & Diana in the garage, Mia - they have sprite!!!!, "tushie" is a cute word, Serene & Jen are in cahoots, Mia's baby names, poor Lola's reaction to all the fireworks, Jen wearing the baby monitor outside, the leather lounge chairs were a hit, strawberry cookies, The guys who requested we roll our window down on the LONG drive home to ask Gavin if he has any Grey Poupon (hilarious)

The purchasing of fireworks on the side of the road! The vanna white-esq display of the fireworks Jen & Thatcher's 4th of July party- the table was eventually FULL of fireworks purchased on the side of the road... Lola & Megwhat I will look like when pregnant...
