4th of July weekend--Elan has had a great weekend! On Friday the 4th we went to our church for a party with our Sunday school class. You will see some pictures here of his shirt which said Little Firecracker. He can't say cracker so he said firecrack. He also heard us saying fireworks and kept saying that word. We bought him some snap and pops to throw on the ground, but he needed to stomp them to get them to pop. I also took one picture of him in his sunglasses. His daddy said "Hollywood" to him, and he thinks that is funny. He loved the fireworks and said all the colors he saw and kaboom and was wide-eyed. He was actually whinining for more when they were over.
On Saturday after the 4th, we took the top off the Jeep (which he loved) and drove to the Pocket (National forest land near here). We went to the picnic area where there is a spring and water to wade in. He had a blast even though the water was so cold I couldn't put a foot in it. He waded in it and put his hands in it, and when he fell down every now and then he said "ah cold" but didn't care. We had to drag him out to warm him up, and then we let him get back in. He still whined and cried "agua" when we left, but we were really afraid he might get hypothermia. His little legs and arms were so cold to the touch. But it was fun!
