Fireworks


We had a very busy and fun filled weekend. Mom came up Thursday night and spent Friday with us. Then we had family over for pizza on Friday night. Saturday, my Aunt hosted her annual 4th of July family picnic. This is a fun tradition that she started last year...luckily, I live in town and don't have to travel very far to attend! Everyone brings a dish and this year we even had a door prize drawing...Sadie won! Hannah had a blast...she competed in a potato sack race, got to ride on a golf cart...and played endlessly with Mikayla. We came back to our house to rest and have some dinner and got to watch a go-cart race in our own court. The people on the corner were having a HUGE shindig and they had kids racing in derby cars down the hill. We had fun cheering them on. After dinner, we headed back over to Joy's for some fireworks..courtesy of Uncle Tommy. Hannah was determined NOT to be afraid of them this year. She covered her ears for most of the show, but still smiled and clapped. We didn't get home until 10pm...and both girls were transferred (sleeping like the dead) from the car to their beds without even lifting an eyelid. What a great weekend!
