Thanksgiving in July?

We have had a turkey in our freezer since last November and it has been taking up WAY too much room. Jeremy suggested we cook it and kick off our 4th of July weekend with a turkey dinner. I was nervous to cook a turkey because I have never been on that committee. Luckily, with the help of my friend Nikki we were able to get the job done. She took out the neck/guts and I put it in the oven. We are quite a team :) I could NEVER cook one by myself. Raw turkey grosses me out!!!! Here is the whole gang ready to eat. The beautiful golden turkey....

I even attempted my first homemade apple pie. It was yummy! Kylee and Maylee getting ready for dinner.Later that weekend we had our first family outing to Taco Bell. If you can believe it there aren't too many of them out here. For some reason Jeremy and I were craving crunchy tacos (well I guess it was mostly me). We gave Kylee a quesadilla and she loved it! Don't worry, we won't be going here too often ;) A worker gave Kylee a balloon and she loved playing with it. It allowed Jeremy and I to eat our dinner in peace :)

After Taco Bell we headed to our favorite homemade ice cream place, The Cup. Here is a picture of Kylee and Maylee playing in the grass. It looks like Kylee just pushed Maylee over but they were rolling around in the grass together, I just missed the shot.

The last part of our pre-holiday weekend, some friends of mine all went to see Eclipse! It was nice to get out without the babies, except for Lincoln. He is such a sweet heart!!
