Independence Day





Sticky, sweaty, humid, dry, YET cloudless weather this year for the fireworks. Everyone at our house took a shower (or sponge bath if you were under the age of two) before bed, but compared to the rain last year, I'll take it. The turn out was amazing. There were a ton of people there good for people watching and entertainment for the kids.

When the fireworks finally came on, Mallory was astonished by the amazing colorful explosions in the sky. She would point straight up in the air and exclaim "ahhhhhhhhhh....ooohhhhh." It was a very late night for us, but Mallory was a trooper. Only a couple of minor meltdowns, but nothing the fireworks couldn't take care of.

Every year she seems to get more into the 4th of July which is great considering it is one of my favorite holidays. There is nothing like sitting on a blanket in the grass with family and friends and watching fireworks in the night sky. Lets see what happens next year....fingers crossed she is still not afraid of them.
