Our Fourth of July....

Yesterday we celebrated The Fourth of July! Lucas is at Papa and Nana's, so he wasn't here to celebrate. Both sides of the family had parties this year to celebrate, but we didn't go 1. Because Minte does not do well with long car rides. (He's not used to riding in cars). and 2. Minte, me, and Mom are sick. Minte's the worst. His temp is in the hundreds and he mostly just cuddles. Which is fun to hold him for an hour or two, but sad to know how sick he is!

We started the day with church. Mom and Minte had to stay home, though. Ana wore a special Fourth of July dress.Three other girls at church were wearing the same dress!!! It was pretty cool. Then we headed to the store to shop for our supper. mmmmmm...

After we were at home, we ate and hung out in the afternoon. Played some computer games, the wii, etc.

THEN we had our delicious supper. Strawberries, watermelon, cheetos, hot dogs, sausages, and a rice krispie treat flag! It was very yummy!

Then we went to fireworks. It was hard to find a good place as there were very few empty parking spots. We did end up finding a spot, and we figured the fireworks would begin soon as it was 9:30ish, but we were very wrong! The fireworks didn't start until 10ish. Unfortunately, there were a bunch of trees in the way so we were only able to see the high ones. We didn't even get to see the finale, which is my favorite!

We ended up staying up really late!!

Today we are having s'mores!! Dad has the day off today, so we should have a lot of fun!
