4th in pics

We got up early and headed out west to the Minnetonka area with donuts in hand.

We spent the day with good family friends. They knew of July 4th festivities near Minnetonka - such a beautiful area. Faustina rode her bike and Jude was in his stroller for the parade march. Kim and I gawked at the amazing houses on the along the lake.



The kids enjoyed the popsicles they handed out.

While Faustina was with Michelle and Belle going around to the dozen different booths of games, we needed to relax in the shade because we were melting from the heat.

Jude was spinning around and running around so much he kept falling over. We dowsed him to cool him off a bit.



We headed over to Lake Minnetonka for lunch and the beach.




Jude loves the water, and his Dad.


Auntie Kim and Faustina worked on their sand castles.

And the playground was a hit.

Mike and Philippe got their work out on the kayak.


We headed home to rest for an hour or 2 and then headed over to West St. Paul for dinner and to see the fireworks downtown. Needless to say, everyone was very ready for bed when the day ended at almost 11:30pm!
