Fourth of July

For the celebration of our country's independence, we had some friends over for some swimming fireworks. Everyone swam until they needed to refuel. Luckily, when we all get together, there is plenty of food. Once all the fingers were looking like raisins again we headed out front to watch some fireworks. In our little corner of the neighborhood there were plenty of explosions and oohs and awwws followed each burst of color. Before too long, Jason and I turned around and many of the kids had made their way back into the house either because it was too noisy or because it was way past their bedtime. You know it was a good celebration when everyone is trying to stay awake but just can't due to the exhaustion.
