Tomorrow is the party and we leave for Amsterdam, so today was occasionally busy. It was also tired, because I woke up a thousand times last night thinking important things like should I take pink sandals and I would like to be eating waffles right now.
I think we are packed, except for all of those things I think I will remember to pack after I use them tomorrow.
The basement remains a complete disaster. I honestly think it is exactly the same as last 4th of July – 6 weeks or so after we moved in. I decided quite a while ago that I didn’t care, so that was stress free.
It might rain, or storm, or be sunny. Or all of the above.
Benjamin and Elizabeth arrived about 10pm and we are enjoying them already. I sat down to write this – having not taken a picture today at all – and Benjamin popped back upstairs to see if the air conditioning is on and voila! POTD!

Hope the trip is a ton o’ fun!!!
#1 goal is to keep Keith healthy! Everything else is a bonus
