We had a fabulous 4th of July with the Hopkins gang (Chris' sis and hubby Justin and their cuties, Copper and Tucker). They came up and we did the zoo. The zoo has a fun new dinosaur exhibit. A bit scary for the little ones. The dinosaurs are life-size and move and are very realistic. One even spit at you when you walked by....like I said....a bit much for the little ones.;)
Fun though. They were troopers. We did go out to see fireworks downtown too. I was too busy consoling Bethany to get any pictures though. She was really scared. Ben on the other hand....not so much. He didn't flinch once. The difference between those two cracks me up. Hope everyone else had a great 4th. I think the highlight (besides having the Hopkins) was the weekend before when church had a really wonderful patriotic service honoring our military men and women. The service was a poignant reminder to me, of what a wonderful country we live in, and how (amidst much ungodly government and leadership), there are so many wonderful godly men leading our country.

Oh Sarah!
Zack would DIE to see that dinosaur exhibit!
Looks like you had fun. Isn't it wonderful to share those times with your grown-up siblings?
We're off to Ca tomorrow, and then up to Idaho. I asked AJ if I could see Sarah, and he said it's a possibility:-)
Char and Hannah are going to spend a week in Idaho with us and I can't wait to see them. It's been six months!
Lots of love,
Analene
