The 5th of July

The 4th of July yesterday was a little rainy and a little rainy but still a lot of fun for the Woglom fam. We had a lazy morning at home followed by lunch at Houlihans as we "ran between the drops" of rain that were coming down. Things finally cleared up though and we were able to play outside a little bit before heading to Danna's for their annual Fireworks Watching party. J still isn't quite ready for fireworks so Chris got to hang with the older kids and I got to hang with the grown-ups! It was a fun evening! This morning, Chris had swim practice and then we wandered out to a comic book store (more on that in a minute) and we checked out Meadowbrook Park. This is an amazing new park with a cool playground (almost geared more toward older kids) and lots of green space and trails. The boys found a huge hill too!

We explored the park and will definitely be back with our bikes, scooters and rollerblades (and Grammy too!)...

The boys have been really into this show I used to watch as a kid called "Voltron" as well as superheroes of all kinds. Chris requested a trip to a comic book store and we found a good one! The boys picked up some Voltron comics as well as Spiderman (and Mommy may have gotten an X-Files comic too!). They have been checking them out this afternoon...
