Happy 4th!

Happy 4th of July everyone. I know it's a little late.. but it's taken me this long to recover. Man I'm getting old...

We had a ton of people over at the house, adults and kids. My neighbor and I took one section of our fence down, which gave us a bunch more room in the backyard. It was still pretty crammed though. I didn't get to relax much, trying to be the host and make sure everything went well. I was also busy making sure the BBQ turned out. Everyone seemed to have a good time, and I was happy with the food, even if I almost set the house on fire.

The bad part of all your friends having 2 year olds is that all of them get tired around 8:00... the two year olds that is. Most people headed home before the fireworks but we still had some fun lighting them off with other people in the neighborhood. Hailee's favorite was the Jumping Jacks, which is this little fountain that spits out mini ground bloom flowers.

All in all, a successful event. But I'm glad it's over and life can get back to normal.
