We had a fun holiday weekend. Well, as much fun as you can have when it is 110 degrees outside.
Friday, we met Trisha, Brian, Logan and Jaxon at the pool in the afternoon. Somehow I didn't get any pictures. But this is Carson after a day of swim lessons and then the pool all day.
On Saturday we hung out in the house and let the kids get some good naps in. Carson woke up really cranky anyway. Then, at about 4 we went to Travis' parents house to grill out and hang out and play with the water toys and kiddie pool in the backyard. The food was all so good and we had a great time.
Trisha and I decided to make a cake that we had seen on the Conversations With a Cupcake blog.

It doesn't look too enormous here. Just a plain ol' cake covered in white frosting.
Then we added some sprinkles.
It was full of fruit inside, so we decided it was healthy. The layers are: purple/blackberries, blue/blueberries, green/lime, yellow/lemon, orange/orange and red/rasberry. And the frosting was white chocolate. It was very tasty. But I felt really sick afterwards.
Here is everyone enjoying it.

Then after all of the food, we went to see the fireworks. We got there about 5 minutes before they started and we were right underneath them. Carson loved them and Porter didn't mind them at first. But they were REALLY loud because we were so close and he was really hungry anyway. This is Carson and Travis watching the show.
