We were so lucky to have some visitors for 4th of July weekend. Grandma and Patti were able to come up from South Carolina and spend the weekend with us. It was really cool to see Blair really interact with Grandma. Blair had Grandma read some books to her and Blair also showed Grandma around the house.
We were able to take a little road trip to Knott's Island and go to a winery and do a wine tasting. The wine was good! Knott's Island has tons of dragonflies all over the place!!!! Blair loved watching them fly all around.
I got creative for the weekend as well. I made red, white and blue cupcakes with red and blue sprinkles and a red chocolate star! We all really enjoyed eating our patriotic cupcakes!
I was really excited to take Blair to see the fireworks at the beach this year. We are so lucky that mom lives 3 blocks from the beach. We walked down to the beach to see the fireworks that they were setting off at the Oceanfront. It's so cool that we can avoid a lot of the tourist traffic but still be able to enjoy everything. Blair did OK with the fireworks. On Saturday, she did get scared of them, but I think it was because she was just startled by them. We kept telling her that they were fireworks and that they were very pretty. She calls them Boom Booms! While we were at the beach, Blair did really well. She was a little nervous since there were people setting fireworks off all around us until the big show started. But once the show started she did watch them.
It was a great weekend and we can't wait to be able to head down to Charleston to hang out with the family there!!! Thanks so much for coming up to see us Grandma and Patti!!!!
