Well, one good thing about the 4th of July falling on a Sunday, is that you end up celebrating the whole weekend and then some! :) On Saturday morning, we woke up early and went to a pancake breakfast in the park and then joined some good friends for a parade.
The whether was perfect, so we decided to take the kids to Lagoon for the afternoon. We were afraid that the lines might be outrageous, but it was actually really slow and empty. We were able to walk right into Lagoona Beach, and then didn't have to wait in any lines either. Rhett was finally tall enough to ride on the big rides, so he chose to try out all the big roller coasters for the first time and absolutely loved them, especially the one's that went upside down.
We loved having some good family time to spend together. I just love my kids!
A full day of activities can really take it out of you though. Issac needed a little rest to get him through the rest of the day's activities.
We ended the night with some fireworks from the next town over. The kids love being able to sit on top of the car and snuggle under blankets.
Sunday, we went to church, then took naps, bbq some steaks, then we let the kids do some sparklers and pop its in the driveway, then watched all the other neighbors that had the big stuff. We ended the night with some root beer floats and some very happy kids.
Monday morning, we woke up and started everything all over again. We went to another, much bigger and better parade, played in the park, and then watched what I think is the best fireworks show I have ever seen. It was such a great weekend of celebrating. Happy 4th of July!
