Happy 4th!

Happy 4th of July everyone! Yesterday was a good day. Cooper is getting more adventurous with his cast; this is both good and bad. He "kinda fell a little" in the ocean and got his cast a little damp. Oops. Here he is drying it out and looking really cool on the beach.

Speaking of Cooper, I really have to brag on him. He has been so great about this broken arm thing. He hasn't felt sorry for himself at all and has really tried to make the best of it. We saw one of his friends at the beach and it was heartbreaking to see him try to do all the normal beach stuff and not be able. We built a lot of sandcastles and played beach golf. He's disappointed he can't go to golf camp but we decided he could do another week of Stratford camp and he's ok with that. All in all, he has been great - still a pest, but with a great attitude!

I'll brag on little Libby some too. She has been a trooper this whole trip. She was so tired last night after the fireworks she just buried her face in my shoulder and went to sleep. We have hauled her around all day and night, kept her on the beach all day long (which probably isn't much fun when all you can do is sit and sleep) and not stayed on any kind of schedule. She has been wonderful through the whole thing. As long as she has a bottle, she's good!

It is a zoo down here this weekend. We tried to go watch the fireworks at the pier but it was wall to wall people - yuck! We ended up going down the beach a little and watching them there. We didn't get a "full on" view but we could see them. We could also see the Jekyll fireworks too which was kind of neat.

We have to go home tomorrow and we aren't ready!!!

Happy 4th to you guys too! Tell Coop we are very impressed with him... I think if it were Uncle Rusty at the beach with a broken arm, he would be a big whiney baby.
