Happy Fourth of July!

We have Fireworks! (they are legal in Tennessee, but are not in Minnesota)

Yesterday was a long day, we went to the flea market in the morning, a town trip in the afternoon and at about 8:00pm we decided to go to the Transformers movie in Murray, KY with a stop at the fireworks store while we were up there.

Tranformers was extremely fast visually, hard to see things because they were moving so fast. It was like a video game, with everything going on all over the screen at once very fast and hard to track it all. Plot-wise it wasn't too bad, but it was funny to see Ebay used as a plot device ;)


Our Pogo-face

When we were at the flea market we saw a kitten that could have been Pogo's twin. She was very small and scared of dogs, though. I'm sure Pogo is glad we left her there for someone else to adopt.


Cotton Shirting Fabrics

I also picked up some men's cotton dress shirts from one of the flea market booths. At 25 to 50 cents apiece I don't mind using them for fabric - they'll be great for toys!

Wishing you all a happy and safe Fourth of July!

Sitting here in MN, after dark on the 4th, you would never know that fireworks are not legal here.

Happy Belated 4th of July!

Those shirts look like great finds. I can't believe that you left that Pogo-alike behind though ;)

wow, that pogo is getting SO big!

we went and saw transformers, too--it was fun, but yes, too fast! my eyes can't take that much in that quickly. i had the same experience with the final star wars film. totally overwhelming.

my favorite scene was the one with the transformers in the backyard trying to hide ("shhh!") from the parents...
