Fourth of July

We had supper on the 4th of July, at Jennifer & Joel's house. We had a little bit of hail and some rain before we left.

We spent the 4th of July evening at Jerry & Shelby's house to watch the fireworks. MISTAKE!!! We had a whale of a hail storm, in fact several hail storms while we were there. Unfortunately, that nixed the fireworks too. Hail damage was pretty bad on the Jeep, Vue, and Jerry's truck. They have an appointment on Saturday for the insurance on the Jeep. I think Shelby is taking the truck in today to get the insurnace estimate on it.

Ellis had his first Dr. appointment on Monday. He is doing great, and sleeping pretty good in the night. We will have to leave on Friday or Saturday to get back to the real world. Yuck.

Well, it's July already. Little Ellis Gideon Marshall arrived on the first day of July, at 10:39 pm. He is 7lbs and 14 ozs and 20 1/2 inches long. David and I have been in Colorado for a week. The time has flown by. Jennifer and Ellis got to come home from the hospital today. They got home about 4 this afternoon. He is a cutie, and changing already from when he arrived. Everyone is tickled to have him here. I am spending the night with them tonight, so that Jennifer and Joel can get a little more rest. Jerry took David and I up Pike's Peak today. It was a awesome drive and what a view!!
