Fourth of July Celebration

Our neighborhood has an amazing fireworks show on the Fourth of July. They also have a parade, bounce houses, face painting, etc. Plus, our pool has an amazing party that afternoon, so we always look forward to a fantastic Fourth of July celebration. In fact, we like it so much, that we even planned our Disney World trip so that we would be back in time for the party.

Mother Nature played a pretty mean trick this year though and storms were predicted all weekend. Everything was cancelled and we were bummed. We decided to have fun anyway and everyone still came over to the house. We had fun playing with the kids, chatting, eating and drinking. Amazingly, there was a break in the rain and we even got to make our own little parade an do a few of our own fireworks!

Later in the month, we had a belated Fourth of July celebration in the neighborhood. It was smaller than usual, but it was lots of fun. Plus, Jamie and Zack were in town and they got to enjoy the festivities!
