Happy 4th of July! Thankful for our country and to live in the USA. We had our annual neighborhood/friend party and we had a great time! We got lots of rain that week, but glad it wasn't raining that night so we could have the party. We did s'mores, sparklers for the kids, and Kley set off a bunch of smaller fireworks for a show. My parents ended up coming last minute too to visit my grandma, so it was great we got to see them for a night too and they could join the party!
This house is a gift to our family in many ways, one of the top being able to use it for hospitality. Love seeing the driveway and yard filled!
Three beauties doing sparklers!
We celebrated with De Jongs with a delicious meal, bubbles/parachute outside, ice cream cake, and a few fireworks too! It was a special night. Kley's sister and her family are living here now, so it's so fun to have them close! They just moved, as Brett finished residency and is going to be an anesthesiologist here- way to go Brett! They are currently living in my in law's basement until their house is finished being renovated.
The kids love the parachute firework best, that shoots off a little army man attached to a parachute and you have to chase it and try to catch it.
Parachute and bubbles.
Happy 4th of July! Hope you had a wonderful time celebrating as well!
