July 4th

 This lovely family came to visit us over the July 4th holiday, long weekend and we worked our tails off! We did take a time out on July 4th to enjoy some fireworks and displays around the neighborhood.  Jill, Eric and the boys have not experienced a 4th of July like this before.  I am not sure if they will return next summer or not. Our neighborhood has quite the competition amongst neighbors, much to our delight. However the levels of competition are quite loud and large, lasting long into the night!!

 The cousins had not been together all summer so they were more than happy and excited to spend 4 days together catching up and hanging out.  It was such a fun weekend, busy, productive, exhausting, but fun!!Jill, Eric, Pete and I really have a good time when we are together!!








The final launch of the night! A lantern, I always end up holding my breath until the lantern clears the neighbors house across the street. The lantern has quite the flame going before the actual lift out of your hands happens.
Another successful 4th of July spent at home. This seems to be our home holiday and once in awhile it is nice to just stay put and enjoy our neighbors.
