Our 4th Of July!!

So today was my first 4th of July as an American citizen! Dan had to work, so the boys and I spent the day on our own. We started out by going to a parade where they boys managed to score some candy. We were pretty hot by the time the parade was over, so we took grandma up on her offer and stopped by her place for a dip in the pool. We then came home for naps in which I had told the boys if they took good naps they could stay up for the fireworks tonight.

Dan got home from work about 45 minutes early which was night. After dinner we enjoyed a cappucino and then got ready for fireworks. We enjoyed some sparklers and small fireworks in our back yard before venturing out for the "big" ones. We took our blankets and headed out to the local college campus to find our spot. The fireworks were great and the boys were very tired by the end.
