I’m starting to realize that Independence Day is one of my favorite holidays. Not only do I love honoring the sacrifices made for freedom, but I love the tradition, the colors and the time spent with family. We almost always have a poolside picnic on the fourth of July and this year was no different. We got started a little later in the day since it fell on a Sunday, but we more than made up for it on Friday, Saturday and Monday.
Closer to dark, we loaded up picnic number two {fast food this time} and headed downtown for Thunder on the Mountain, our local fireworks show. Garan, Poppy & Jared joined us this year and we had just as much fun as last year. The boys threw the football until dark, Ella and Sophie got plenty of attention and K & I took lots of pictures.
Pictures of fireworks are courtesy of K, of course.
