July 4th - Independence Day

For our Fourth of July celebration we headed over to Brooke and Dale's house to grill out, watch movies, and watch the Lake Winnie fireworks. Since we couldn't be with family we decided to celebrate with friends.

We bought some fireworks to set off in the driveway too. While we were setting off the fireworks a large dog showed up and kept playing with the lit rockets, carrying them around in his mouth while we chased him and got them away from him in time for them to explode, and one time catching his fur on fire. We never did find out who that dog belonged to but he apparently likes to play with fire!

From Brooke and Dale's front porch you can see the Lake Winnie fireworks display through the trees. We didn't have to fight the traffic and crowds and still got to enjoy the show.
We also bought sparklers and glow in the dark toys for the kids to play with.
We were all exhausted by the end of the night but a good time was had by all!
