4th of July

Over the 4th of July we went to the Riverhouse on the Mississippi. Friday was really nice weather, and then Saturday it was rainy in the morning. We took the kids out to the river in the afternoon, and then for a treat went to Joe's Ice Cream. They have the best ice cream. After that we took the kids to the park to burn off some energy from being inside all morning. They had a lot of fun and so did the adults.
Sunday turned out to be a really nice day too and we did a lot of swimming. I even got in, and so did Katie (Tyler's wife). The kids wanted mom to swim and Bill went and got his life jacket on. Then he tried to push me in, but I cleverly escaped. I did eventually get in, but WOW, was it cold. After a little bit of swimming it wasn't too bad.
