Happy 4th of July & Grand Opening!

Hometown Hardware & Garden Grand Opening and Happy 4th of July!

We had a fun 4th today and we are very grateful to live in the United States and celebrate the freedoms that we often take for granted.  Logan spent the night at Grandma and Grandpa's house last night!  He had a great time.  We went out on a date and watched 2 movies!  Today we had a relaxing dinner with family and the Lanthripes--pictures below.

We also have very exciting news about Lyndsey's dad's store--Hometown Hardware & Garden- it is now open!  We all attended and helped at the Grand Opening Celebration last Saturday.  It was a great day with a huge turn out- they have a lot of local support.  It was a day that I will always remember with gratitude for how good God has been to our family.  I am grateful for my dad and the way he has chosen to trust God over the past couple of years.  We are praying for this store to be a success!  Brad took pictures over the past few weekends and we put some below.

Also on the right of the page we made a new list called "Logan's Favorites".  It's just a fun list of some of his favorite things.

Grandma taught Logan to march and wave his flag proudly while we sing "It's A Grand Ole Flag"

Logan was a helper on Grand Opening Day!

The store had a DJ, free food, and giveaways throughout the day

As you can see, the free food was popular

They had a huge turnout and the store was full all day

Playtime with our good friends, the Berry kids.  Where's Logan?  Hint, look under the table.

Lyndsey and Logan went to the Arboretum with Shannon and Nico.  Logan loved the peacocks and all the animals.
