HAPPY 4TH OF JULY!!

Happy 4th of July! We had so much fun going to watch fireworks this year! We went to Tempe Town Lake. We got there early and had a picnic and played. It was beautiful! It was hot, but Aiden had so much fun! We enjoyed a snow cone, and glow sticks, running up and down hills and especially playing in the dirt and rocks.
He really like playing in the rocks and dirt. I think this is the first time he has ever sat in a pile of dirt and played in it. He's a boy...he loves dirt!
I loved watching the fireworks here because they were shot off that bridge right behind us, and they reflected off the lake. BEAUTIFUL! The fireworks lasted for more than 30 minutes. It was an awesome show.
Aiden had never seen fireworks before so he didn't know what to think of them at first, but he liked them much better while clenching tight to mom. He stayed just like this for almost the entire show. It was WAY past his bed time too, so i'm sure that had something to do with it.
We had lots of fun playing as a family and celebrating our amazing country. We are so proud to be American's in this wonderful, free country! God Bless America!!!
