Happy 4th of July 2011

We've begun a tradition of getting together with our friends, the Denhams, on the 4th of July and shooting off fireworks together. In our town, ground fireworks are legal but shooting fireworks into the air is illegal. Their neighbors across the street were shooting off air fireworks anyway (as were LOTS of people all around us). Well, an unmarked police car came along and fined them $1,000 for breaking the law!!!


The kids seemed to enjoy the fireworks except Benjamin Denham who preferred to stay in the house.



The sparklers were great fun and Ken also bought a family pack of fireworks that we enjoyed. We're definitely sticking with the legal fireworks, that's for sure!

Quiet day here. Hard to believe.
