lots of red, white and blue.

The fourth of july was so great!
The day started off with the Hoffman Estates city parade 
that was complete with about 7 fire trucks, a lot of baton twirling, tons of candy
and one...yes just one..float.
oh, the beauty of small towns :)


After swimming the afternoon away we headed to Sean and Heidi's 
for BBQ, good conversation and fireworks








After the real fireworks and all the sparklers were gone we pulled out 
some other fireworks we had brought
but they were COMPLETE duds! 
After a bit of sparks green smoke started oozing out and that was it!

lame.

So what do guys do when the wow isn't big enough?


yup, they set it on fire.

Don't worry, we put it out with plenty of stomping and water!
It was the perfect end to a wonderful long weekend.

Now husband is back at work 
but at least we have a short week!

Hope ya'll had a great fourth and felt patriotic all the while :)

because i am blessed.
