Today we went up to Cedar Park to swim and celebrate the 4th with our friends Bethany and Atticus. See the little orange water slide in the picture below? I didn't believe she'd be into it, but after watching Atticus a couple times she decided to give it a try. Aurora LOVED it! The two of them just went up and down that water slide over and over and over and over...
After my last post, I got a few questions about what Aurora does and doesn't like. She tells me she likes clowns now - though we haven't seen one for quite some time. She likes any organized activity, loves jumping and bouncing, watching animated TV and movies, reading, eating snacks, singing, and bossing us around. She does not like any kind of bugs - even the teeniest spiders make her squeal - and she dislikes anything that's too scary, spicy, or loud. She's very imaginative, and tells us when she has bad dreams. I hope she's having sweet dreams tonight after this wonderful long weekend.

Aw, Joe is such a good dog. Glad you had a great weekend. It's funny that you included that Aurora likes bossing you around - yes, she does! I hope she had sweet dreams, too.
What a wonderful way to spend the
4th of July week end--swimming and doing water sports. Sounds like you had a good time and Aurora did, too.
Looks like a fun time for all. Noticed that you didn't mention fireworks. I guess Aurora will have to wait to see some real fireworks with the Cheezheads someday. As you know, we always get as close as legally possible right near the pyrotechnics, LOL. But if she doesn't like "loud" noises, maybe she wouldn't like them, LOL.
The hour long fireworks were spectacular in Milwaukee, shot from 3 barges over Lake Michigan. Racine had a wonderful 40 minute show over the lake.
It's true... no fireworks this year, but she claims to remember them from last year. It's okay - she goes to bed before it's dark out, so she would've had to miss them anyway.
It definitely didn't feel like the 4th without ANY fireworks, but we still had fun and no houses burned down!
