Happy 4th!!

Happy Fourth of July!!!!

We spent Benny's first 4th of July at a place called Rustler's Roost. It is a restaurant at the top of South Mountain. It has an awesome view and you can see firework shows all over the valley.

Uncle Phil and Auntie Erika came and spent the weekend with us. We had fun with them.

These are our friends, Richard and Tamara. They came to dinner with us. If you look closely you can see Tamara's belly. Their first baby is due on July 13th.

That strip of light behind Phil is part of the view of the valley. The whole front side of the restaurant is windows. It's a neat place.

Benny likes to sip water from a straw.

Guess who fell asleep before the fireworks.

We did go outside for a while to watch all the firework shows. But, we didn't stay too long because it was about 187 degrees outside. We were full, and sweaty and miserable. We missed the storms that we had last year. That always cools things down a bit. I hope we get some storms soon. Word is that we will be seeing 116 degrees by the end of the week. Ugh.....Why do people live here???? ;o)
