Good times...

I am so bummed that 4th of July is over, we had such a great day yesterday!! Here is a run down of what we did this weekend:


Saturday- We spent the day shopping, Old Navy was having an awesome sale so we took advantage. Kyle got a few books for the plane ride and then we decided it was time to hit the pool. We spent a few hours swimming and enjoying the beautiful day. We watched "The Invention of Lying" with Jennifer Garner and Ricky Gervais, I definitely recommend this movie, it was better than I expected.

Sunday- We got up bright and early and headed to Carowinds. We spent a few hours there (I got sick, pretty sure the hormones I am taking were the cause) and then headed home. We decided to go to the events on post. We watched The Golden Knights doing an amazing demonstration and got to see the band "Chevelle" play. We spent the rest of the night hanging out with some great friends (they live right across the street from the parade field), we could hear everything going on including the 82 Airborne Division band play. They were victims of a horrible fire (it happened on Friday) that destroyed all of their instruments, uniforms and sheet music, but thanks to the community who donated everything they needed the show went on. The night was capped off with a fantastic fireworks show!

Overall, we had an awesome weekend! We are spending today just relaxing and possibly heading to the pool later.

I hope everyone had an amazing 4th of July!!!

I will leave you with a few pictures from yesterday:

  2. Sounds like a great weekend!

    My husband is in the band (not there, but here), and I think our commander loaded up a bunch of stuff to drive it down to Ft. Bragg, since we're one of the closest Army Bands to the 82nd. We were so sorry to hear about the fire!
