4th of july

We had a great 4th of July weekend. We went on an overnight camp out and had a fun time setting up camp, swimming, having a barbecue and eating s'mores. Tank's favorite part was being RIGHT by a pretty busy train track. He just sat and waited for the trains to pass by. To my shock the trains continued to pass by during the night! I did find myself wondering who puts a campground next to a train track?! But it was literally Tank's favorite part so...The next day we took another swim, came home and cleaned ourselves and went to another barbecue and did lots of fireworks. We're so grateful to live where we live. Happy birthday America!

Tank recently turned 4! We sure do love him! He still loves playing in the dirt and water best, adores anything with wheels on it, loves doing real work with Dad and does a great job looking out for his sisters. He keeps a good eye on Bitsy and adores playing with Bug. One of my favorite things is him calling out for Bug to come play with him. But most of all, I love his sweet and tender soul. He dishes out awesome kisses, is quick to say 'I love you' and gives out really endearing back scratches. 

He was pretty pleased at everybody singing 'Happy Birthday' to him.

Happy birthday Tank!
