Rainy 4th of July

After all the fun we had planned for the perfect 4th of July bash - we were rained out! It started raining in the morning and didn't stop until dark. That meant all of our guests were in the house and garage - but we still had a good time and ate a lot of good food. The kids didn't mind the drizzle and were running around the yard most of the day. Luckily though, the rain tappered off just as it got dark enough for fireworks to start. Nate didn't want part in all the loud noises (and Josie was fast asleep already) but we went outside to watch our neighbors shoot off their fireworks, and then we had a few of our own that we lit off while all the neighbors watched from their front porches too. We are definitely going to do this again next year! So much fun with all the kids around.


And we even made it a sleep over. Cheerios and fruit for breakfast :) It's a beautifully sunny day today (go figure! hrmpph!) and we off to catch some rays!
