Saturday was the much anticipated “The Granddaddies of Lake County Rock” show.
Good times were had by everybody that showed up — and practically everybody showed up.
I’m a bit biased, but of course The ELVi were the highlight of the evening.
How can you not like a band that puts on a show like that?
Saturday was the first time I’ve had any alcohol in about a month… and boy, did I get an awesome buzz from 1.5 light beers.
Sunday was a relaxing day celebrating the twins’ birthday. If only the sun stayed out, it would have been perfect pool party weather. Justin and Jack were brave enough though (I’m a wuss and won’t go in the water unless it’s roasting outside).
We also had some fireworks, which were set off while it was still light out because there was a threat of rain.
I really wasn’t ready for the weekend to end — I almost need another weekend from the weekend.
As per the norm, we went to my aunt’s house for their annual 4th of July party. This year my uncle was in town. It’s been many, many years since I saw him last (I want to say 2002).
Crazy bunch of mo-fos.
Again, as per the norm, we went to Mundelein for the fireworks. The finale was just as good as usual, but a bit short.
In other news… wish me luck. Tomorrow (Monday) I’m starting the Fat Smash Diet.
