Happy 4th of July!!

We didn’t do too much.  Since we’d painted the night before I wanted Brian to get some rest in.  So Kae and I went to town (yes we made an extra trip, that I rarely do with gas as high).  We had to buy the lights for the addition.  We figured this way we can pick inexpensive outdoor lights and not end up paying $30 for a floodlight the electrician might put out.  We got everything we set out to get except the outdoor fireplace. 

 About 7:30 we all headed to town again to watch the fireworks.  We walked around a bit first and listened to the various bands playing.  Stopped to look at the little goat zoo and the Liger.  Then on to find a spot to watch fireworks.  The garage worked great!  We could see almost everyone of them.  A couple of lower ones were blocked by a building, but that was all.  There was plenty of room up there, so we got a funnel cake and sat on a blanket and ate and drank the juices I brought waiting for the show to begin.  The older three liked them a lot.  We haven’t gone to town to watch for years.  Chelsi was scared.  She liked the colors, but the whole way home she kept saying “they say boom, boom, boom” and she’d yell it real loud.  :)  She loved watching the ones individuals were shooting off as we were driving home because there were no booms.





Can you tell what all of the items are in this photo?  It didn’t turn out, but it was sort of interesting.
