4th of July Weekend

Lucy had a busy holiday weekend, even before the Emergency Room. So busy in fact that I didn't even know that Sarah Palin had announced her resignation as governor until Saturday! (That's the kind of thing I would usually know. Thursday was her 2nd cousin once removed Diego's 13th birthday and we went to a Braves game to celebrate
This also happened to be Lucy's first baseball game. She had a good time but ran her mom and Marina (and a very strict Turner Field usher) ragged. She stayed awake for the whole game and the ride home. That's late.
Earlier thursday we visited Marla and her daughter Maddie in Canton, GA. We went swimming at their subdivision's pool (one of their subdivisions pools). But mostly I was excited about a staged photo-op I had in mind involving watermelon. Here are the results.
Friday, July 3rd was spent at Stone Mountain Park. Lucy rode a train and watched a Lazer show spectacular. The lazer show is pretty much the same as 20 years ago. I dont think Lucy really liked it. It was loud and she was pretty frayed by then. She did however love repeatedly attempting to escape us in the giant crowd on the lawn. That and some glowing sticks that a nice person next to us gave us (I was under pressure to buy her some type of lighting toy but getting in and out of the spot was a major production I sought to avoid).
July 4th was all home, with Grannie and Mom and then the ER.
