4th of July ‘10

My favorite holiday of fun is 4th of July. I love to decorate our house inside and outside for it, too!

The day usually ends up in this order

DECORATE

  

FOOD PREP

PARADE… and we found an even shorter short cut to our spot on the parade route

 

Annie at SPT, and I made the sign…but the limo overheated.

Trent gave them an extra bag of candy from me, Ethan and I were going to be in it with everyone.

COOKOUT back at the house

 

SNAP DRAGONS FOR THE KIDS

POOL TIME

 

GAMES… bags

FIREWORKS

 

and then the fireworks began at the fairgrounds EARLY at like 8:55!!! We had to drop everything and walk to the end of our street to sit in our neighbor’s yard to watch them.

 

 

Then back at the house for more sparklers and our fountains

then they thought it would be fun to put all their glow necklaces together in a circle   the kids were much braver this year with the sparklers – they were even lighting them by putting them in our tiki torches that were lit.

it was hot & humid that day, we were still in our tank tops at night.

Super fun day, until next year!
