We went to a local "park" this year in Litchfield and braved all elements...fire ants, 110° heat, lack of entertainment...and came out with a few good memories to record.
We made shirts to mark the occasion, sadly I can't see that Paige wore hers when I snapped her picture. Paige's said "Fouth of July" with a flag, Jadyn's (made by me) had stars and fireworks...and Coleton's, well, I'm still not sure what his was. Originally, it was supposed to be fireworks (at least, that's what he drew as a blueprint), but when he saw that there was also GLOW IN THE DARK paint, that was pretty much all he used. Boys.
Anyway, we had fun eating icies and playing with a beach ball, but I was very disappointed that there weren't more activities there to entertain the kids while they waited for the show. I guess it's just another reminder how poor the economy is right now, and I should just be thankful that there even WAS a show to attend. Even though it was only about 10-15 minutes long, most neighboring cities didn't even have one.
