4th of July

The Olivers came to visit us again over the 4th of July weekend. My brother-in-law is a huge baseball fan, so naturally we went to a Rangers game and watched the fireworks they had after the game. It was VERY hot but very fun!

Bergen at his first baseball game (course at this age he is still having a lot of "firsts").
The action was still a little too far away for him to see, so he took turns sitting with mommy and daddy.
The hat is a little big, but he wanted to be like cousin Joshua :) And yes, he's asleep, very asleep! Bergen woke up again near the end of the game and stayed awake for the fireworks. I was kind of surprised how much of them he watched. I wondered if the loud bangs would bother him but they didn't. I did hold him very close and covered his ears during the finale, but even that didn't seem to phase him.
Rangers stadium after the game. I carried Bergen in the Snugli to and from the stadium. Our seats were so high up, but the time we wound our way down to ground level he was out cold again and stayed that way until we got home.
The Olivers (my sister Helen, Brant, and Joshua) and the Lintons. Thanks Olivers for the visit and fun activities. Can't wait to hang out again! Are you sure you don't want to stay in Texas??? I'm just saying :)

We sure had fun visiting you. Too bad Travis only got to go to the game with us and we had to leave earlier than planned. Time always goes so much faster than I expect.
