4th of July

We had a very low key day. We just hung out with us three. We had a BBQ lunch because having it later when it was so hot was not something that Ben was looking forward to. We went swimming in the afternoon and had some fireworks that evening.




This was Katelynn's first time seeing fireworks. She slept through them for the past two years. We weren't sure if she would make it this year but she did and was a pretty happy camper. She held some sparklers and was fascinated by them. Ben got some flowers and so we went to the street to set them off.
The neighbors across the street had quite a few that we watched and we saw a few illegal ones that were pretty good too.





Katelynn had a great time. She saw that we were covering our ears when a piccolo pete would go off and she thought that we were covering our cheeks. So, she would put her hands up to her little cheeks it was so cute.

Side note, this is how Katelynn regularly watches her shows. She's so cute.
