OK well the holiday weekend is over! Yippee!! Actually this year was very quiet for us. Terry had to work the 4Th, which meant no camping for us. We were sad over it but hey we have a pool and fun neighbors. So for the holiday I woke up with the kids and met a friend on Main Street for a Small Town USA parade. It lasted all of 30 minutes but the kids enjoyed it and I love seeing them smile. After that we headed home for a nice day of waiting on Daddy to get home. We thought we could go swimming but it rained and rained all day. I was not disappointed at all but I could tell the kids wanted to swim. So around 4 p.m the sky brightened up and the clouds moved away! It was beautiful! We ALL went outside to play and hang out with the neighbors ( did I mention we have the best neighbors around us? No really all of them are so fun.)
At about 8 we loaded up in the truck with chairs, bug spray and water and headed to our Church parking lot for the BEST view of HUGE fireworks! It was just good fun. The view was great, we had no big crowd and thank god because that first boom came and Nicholas went running like a mad man with his hands over his ears screaming for dear life! I had to laugh but at the same time it has to be so scary being a tough big boy and then having that loud noise coming from the sky. The girls and I watched the fireworks from the grass and Terry and Nicholas sat in the truck. It was so nice!
We have all decided that we are making a reservation to camp next year since the 4TH will be on a Saturday. If you want to join us let me know. It will be so fun (always is)
