This year for the 4th, we biked to Old Town and checked out the street fair and music, before heading to City Park. We picnicked under a big tree, while it rained. Rick biked home to pick up a tarp and other things when it started to POUR. The kids didn't mind a bit. Mcayden happily played at the nearby playground, while Addison and I tried to keep ourselves and our picnic dry, under the tree. :)
The clouds parted and the most beautiful double rainbow appeared. I wish I had taken my camera!! We met some friends and soon after Rick came back with a tarp, dry clothes and warm blankets--just in time for the show. The weather shaped up perfectly and we had an awesome time.
Addison sat on Rick's lap and "oohed and ahhed", clapping her hands and pointing at the fireworks. Mcayden kept diving under the blankets and peeking out to watch the fireworks bursting in the air. It was a great night.
We biked home and Addison completely passed out in the bike trailer. It was almost midnight, but after putting her to bed, we met up with our friends & kiddos (a couple of houses away) and did fireworks with them in the street. My favorite thing is playing with sparklers and writing things in the air. It was such a fun night!
Happy 4th of July!!
