Happy Independence Day

We kicked off Independence Day on Wednesday night at our church.  Every year we have a huge worship service followed by fireworks on the lawn.  Each year we are getting better at it.  This year we picked up a pizza and did some picnicing before hand.  We all had so much fun!  We however did not get a good family picture. 

We were not sure how HC would handle the fireworks.  We took our spot on the blanket and prepared for the start.

She LOVED them!  She immediately started clapping.

"Wow, look at that."

We had some good friends there.  Reese came to hang out and watch the fireworks with HC.  As you can see HC was checking her out.

Photo-op...HC was in her wagon during some of the show.

But she was distracted for too long.  After all there was a fabulous show behind her. 

Shane's boss and his family joined us for the festivities.  They are so sweet and the kids had so much fun.

There were lots of kids hanging out with us.  We tried to get a picture.  This was the best we could do.
