Since 2008 is drawing to a close, I thought it would be fitting to review the year in the Potts household. But then I came surging back to reality as Grant licked my hand (sometimes he's a cat) and Jaden's football grazed my ear as it flew by and bounced off the computer screen (when he's not a 1st grader, he's a professional football player). A year's worth of memories is clearly a much too lofty goal. It remains to be seen if the same is true for a half year...
The 4th of July is a super fun holiday for us. It's always been our tradition to watch the parade at Lake Ransom Canyon (2nd only to the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade), and for the past couple of years, the boys have helped decorate Papa Pat's jeep and actually been in the parade. ***Insert flashback here*** Back in the earlier days of LRC, yours truly and a few other select readers out there spent many a 4th dressed in some ridiculous manner riding on floats in the grand parade. Good times. Wait, I don't have any readers yet. Point is...the tradition continues and the boys have a blast!
We also spend time at Grandma and Grandpa's house on the 4th. The boys flood their backyard every year playing in the water. This year the flooding was caused by the 2nd cousin once removed of all water toys -- the Slip 'n' Slide! (The water hose is actually the mother of all water toys)
