It was my nephew Haiden's 9th birthday as well so we celebrated after the parade. Pool Party!!! The boys swam and swam. They had water guns, cups and spray bottles. We enjoyed a yummy BBQ and just spending time together. All of our boys played till they were dropping like flies. Then it was time to head home for naps.
After we had a quick nap we loaded up and headed to our good friends Angelina and Sam's house. The kids played for a bit then we went to Laurel and watched the fireworks. It was LATE by the time we got home, so I just let the boys crawl into bed with me. Hunter still talks about how he got to sleep in Mama's bed. Such a commodity!
I think the 4th is my favorite holiday in part that the weather is usually always nice, spending time with family and friends is always on the agenda along with a good BBQ. The kids play 'till they drop, and I always have such great summertime pictures.
It is a blessing to be able to celebrate our country's freedom. I really should take more time to reflect on all the blessing I/we have living in the USA. I'm so thankful for the men and women who have served and continue to serve our country. Thank you is just not enough.
Hope your day was wonderful too!
