Just a good ol' fourth

I love a loonnnng weekend, especially a Friday off, when I can wake up a little later than normal (7ish), just in time to watch the TODAY show and enjoy a great cup of joe followed by a not timed devotion. This past Friday morning was just that. I also enjoyed a good work out at 9am instead of at 5:30am, things look quite different in the gym when its day light outside.

Charlie and I went to Lake Norman for the fourth to celebrate with my family. The weather was a little iffy all weekend, but we enjoyed a few hours of boating and relaxing. I always enjoy waking up at home sitting around the kitchen breakfast table with my parents over a good cup of Joe. My Dad and I are the early risers, and usually have a good hour conversation started before anyone else gets up. Its quite a treat.

Below are a few photos from the weekend. My parents are lucky, their neighbors at the lake put on the most spectacular fireworks show you could ask for.
