The long weekend

It all began with a surprise visit from my beloved cousin Jessica and her beautiful driving companion, Calvin (he's a dog)...from there we got into the corn and it was pretty much All-American Weekend from there...
Sweet...roasted...crunchy....
Perfect to work a loose tooth, or two in Eliza's case...
Yeah. Corn. (We live in the midwest. It's all fireflies and corn around here these days!)
We spent the Third out in the woods, where there was some serious hanging out, which looked like golf between the trees, potato salad, several trips up and down the treehouse ladder, and some good conversation.
We were up on the Fourth for the morning parade, which lasts all of 5 minutes here...
As one participant put it as he walked by, Happy Interdependence Day!

Mmm, I love every last photo in this post! So much goodliness.

Maddie's bottom tooth is driving her mad. It's about sideways, but hasn't come out yet. Much tears and frustration over it! Hopefully it's going better at your house!
