We hope everybody had a fun and safe 4th of July! Devon's first 4th of July was really relaxing. We went to my parents house and had an amazing dinner! Ben made this delicious Sangria w/ a bunch of fresh fruit, while my parents made some really great steaks. We took Devon outside so he could watch our "neighborhood fireworks show" but the loud noises scared him, so we brought him in within a few minutes.
That Saturday, my parents watched Devon so Ben and I could go on a date. We went to Six Olives, a martini bar in Tacoma, had a few drinks and listened to our friend sing. She has a new CD out, and wow... her voice is beautiful! It was a lot of fun and felt so good for the two of us to get out! That same day we also made our final wedding plans. It feels so good to have everything pretty much taken care of!
Devon has had so much fun playing outside. We've had some beautiful weather lately! He went in the pool for his first time a few weeks ago, which he absolutely LOVES!!! We've also spent a lot of time at our local park. It's nice b/c I get my excersize in while he gets to enjoy the outdoors. After walking a few miles, we go back and swing on the swings. He's so funny! He always keeps Ben and I laughing. We are enjoying this stage tremendously and are looking forward to more!
As you probably can guess, these were taken in the pool! Devon was having so much fun and everyone at the pool kept laughing at him and at all the cute things he was doing. :-)
This picture was taken in Papa and Nani's front yard. He spends lots of time with them, especially now that my mom is watching him on Friday's for us.
