Uncle Jim and the cousins, Eliot and Merritt drove in from Dallas and spent three days and two nights with us, including the 4th of July. Mark introduced Jim to his own favorite mode of relaxation: laying on the bed while watching the beach channel. I can attest to the fact that it is truly mesmerizing!
Troy also came down with his two kids: Sebastian and Liam.
So we had all the cousins except one here.

After a nice 4th of July dinner, we went to the OU pool where we paid an entry fee that included hot dogs, chips cookies and drinks. Awesome set-up! I had packed a cooler filled with picnic food. Completely unnecessary. They had games, dancing and lots of fun. At 9.30 the Cit of Norman put on a firework display from Reaves Park (as always). And we saw the whole thing from the pool since we were only a block away. I think we will definitely spend the 4th of July this way again in the future!
