Everything is awesome!

We stayed put this weekend as Frank needed to knock out some homework and we had a good friend celebrating a birthday.  And it ended up being awesome!

Saturday was "maintenance day" on many fronts.  Everyone in the family got their hair done and Frank replaced the aft air conditioning condensate pump.  

Then the kids and I headed to the local water park (very local, like 5 minutes down the road) to celebrate their friend Julia's birthday.  It was a blast!

We left the water park, washed all the chlorine out of our fresh highlights and headed to the beach to watch "The Lego Movie" with a bunch of our friends.  Everything was awesome!

Sunday was a great day to chill at the marina.  We enjoyed the Herrington Harbour hospitality at a slip holder breakfast then spent 5 solid hours at the pool.  We got some sun!  Then we read and grilled and relaxed.  And that is how I like my weekends!

Independence

Celebrating our country's freedom with friends and family was simply amazing this weekend.  A front and storms passing through on the 3rd cancelled the marina's fireworks, but we still enjoyed nature's show.

The passing of Hurricane Arthur offshore brought us AMAZING weather for the weekend!  The 4th was pretty gusty so we stayed put and enjoyed a great cookout and wedding fireworks with our friends and neighbors.

We headed to St. Michaels for their fireworks on the 5th for our very first raft-up with our friends on Airborne.  It was a success!  Such a great time!

The sail back on Sunday was great, though we were reefed for my comfort.  :)   

I am so thankful that we are able to freely explore our shores.  I'm thankful for all the people that protect us daily.
