The 4th of July

This year things were low-key and easy going for the 4th.  We enjoyed just being home and having nothing to do.  It seemed like a nice way to kick off the long weekend.  Jacob grilled steaks and Brenna and I worked on some My Little Pony craft projects.  As the afternoon wore on, we decided to meet up with friends for the La Centerra Fireworks Show.  The low-key attitude carried over to the afternoon.  Instead of fighting the crowds that packed into La Centerra, we all met up in the parking lot behind Target and backed the vehicles up to an open grassed area.  We threw out the blankets and popped open the lawn chairs!  The kids entertained themselves with Go Fish, tag, and hide and seek!

Hide and Seek!  Can you find her in the picture?

One of the dads broke out the poppers and sparklers!

We even set off some big fire crackers in the parking lot!  Love the girls expressions!

And finally, we ended our 4th with the fireworks show!
