Happy 4th of July! We saw some fireworks last night from the comfort of our car. The Babe was more interested in her little flag, than the fireworks. Well, until we decided to leave. Then she kept wailing that she wanted to see the fireworks and didn't want to leave the "party house". I have no idea how she thought we were at a party house. We were by ourselves on a well-lit parking lot that others had stopped at, too. Anyhow, of what we saw, the display was beautiful. It doesn't have quite the same effect when you're not sitting on a blanket somewhere swatting at flies. It was a last minute decision to go, so at least we weren't disappointed by the experience. Today is equally mellow. The Babe and her daddy played in the sprinkler for a bit this afternoon, and then we've just been relaxing most of the day.
This year hasn't been too festive, by choice. While we were invited to two different places to celebrate the 4th, I didn't want to be on the road with the Babe today. Based on past experience, the 4th is a busy day for traffic, and for emergency rooms. So we'll enjoy the quiet for now, and anticipate lots of booming going on around us tonight, like last night. We didn't see any fireworks from our house, but who knows what tonight will bring.
