Fourth of July

 The girls and Dana stocked up on some fireworks ahead of the Fourth and (mostly Clara) lit them up...and then she moved on to swinging.

Before heading out to Dead Lake to spend the afternoon/overnight at Dana's parents', we hit up Randy's Diner for post-church brunch on Sunday. It was so good and now everyone's fav.

We got going early over to Tamarac at Tessa's in-laws' to get on the boat parade float. The theme was Hollywood this year.

I was chilly during the parade, but it warmed up so nicely and we had a ton of fun out on the water the rest of the day.

Brynn tried knee boarding for the first time and really took to it. Elise and Reagan gave her good instructions.

I wanted to try wake surfing, so before dinner was ready, Chad, Tessa, Cody, Dana and I got back out on the water for me to give it a go. It was pretty fun!
