Happy Independence Day!

Happy 4th of July!  We hope everyone is having a wonderful summer and enjoying time with family and friends!!  We had a very long weekend over the 4th and had fun at a waterfall and of course the pool :)

Ayson got Amy an amaryllis for Christmas 2 years ago.  Amy put the bulb in the ground last summer and then forgot about it (she was supposed to dig it up in the fall).  The bulb survived the winter and is now blooming :) 


Mrs Oliver stopped by on Friday to show us her baby chicks (meat chickens).
LOOK at Ayson's smile :)

Too cute!!


The kiddos and baby chicks.


Mrs Oliver.  Her granddaughter are visiting in July and Mrs Oliver wanted them to experience chickens!


On Sunday, we went to Taughannock Falls State Park in Ithaca.

The swimming hole!

Ayson and Amy contemplating how deep the water is...


Only Amy got up to her waist - there was another level of rock until the bottom but Amy did not want to get THAT wet.

Not THAT old...





On the way home, Ayson wanted to stop at thrift stores to look for old electronic games.  He found an Atari in great condition and was so excited!!! 


We also stopped at an Asian store and we found tapioca pearls - so we could make "bubble tea" at home!  The kids loved their teas!!!

This is what the rest of our holiday looked like:) 


Thunder being cute!
