Fourth of July Festivities at George Bush Library and Museum

The library had a really nice set up for the day. George was not there, as he was golfing with Tiger Woods, but that's okay. They had a lot of free food and stuff for the kids to do. We went through the library, but it is closed for renovation. They have the miniature White House on display (think biggest dollhouse you have ever seen). Everything is architectualy correct, and has everything in it in real life in the minature. The tv's have moving pictures, the photo frames have pics of George and Laura, and they even have miniture Remington sculptures in the Oval Office. We were amazed at the size of the house. It was pretty crowded, so we may go back again so we can spend more time looking at it. They had a band playing outside for a long time, then an Elvis impersonator, and then the symphony. The symphony played for about 20 mins, and then it started to rain, so they stopped. The fireworks were pretty impressive and went off for quite a long time. Sam was a little scared from the noise, but all the boys (including Karsten) stared at them. I think it was the longest Luke and Grant have ever set still (with the exception of watching tv!).

Yo Texas Six! Sounds like a good time was had by all! Look forward to seeing you all again. The boys are really growing fast. Must be the Texas water.
