July 4th

We had an awesome 4th of July weekend. We had a fabulous time with friends all day. We started the day with me running in the CAT Walk/5k run downtown as part of the Hillsboro 4th of July Parade. It was fun. I came in at just under 26 minutes--not bad for the slow runner I usually am. Then we headed home and got ready to have many friends/neighbors over for a BBQ-potluck. It was great to watch the kids in the backyard playing and going all over. There were kids everywhere. It's crazy to think that in just 2 short weeks, we won't be here anymore. I hope all the neighbors that the kids have played with and all us moms that gossiped and socialized out front will still be a part of our lives after we move. Anyway, here are some shots of the day.
