4th of July

We stayed home for the 4th and enjoyed watching the town parade and BBQ'n with some friends. We planned on lighting our own fireworks in front of the house but it rained. The rain did stop for the towns big firework show and Raquel happened to be awake so she and dad quickly hopped in the car, bare foot and went to watch the fireworks at the park. It was the first time Raquel had see a big fireworks show on the 4th and she loved it and has already made plans to go next year and take Natalya with her.

We eventually got to light off our little fireworks the next day. Raquel and Natalya loved helping light them.

It may have rained on our parade but it didn't dampen our patriotic spirit.

Enjoying the parade and all the candy

Fireworks!
