Well, we had another big 4th of July celebration here in our little town. It prides itself on the carnival, activities, parade and fireworks. We can't really ignore it because it all occurs within a couple blocks of our house, we can see it from our window and hear it at night. Excitement builds up for the boys when its approaching. 6yo has been waiting for the city to hang the American flags on all the streetlights for weeks- that was his sign that the festivities would soon be here. Today, they took them down and 4yo almost cried.
We watched the parade (after church) and let the boys ride a couple rides (the night before). Mostly, we visited here at the house with a few relatives who were in town.
Our yard is a convenient place to watch the fireworks display, so we had snacks for whoever wanted to join us. This year it started to rain just in time for the fireworks, so many watched from the garage and some got soaked. After all the excitement- we all slept very late the next morning!
