How was your Fourth of July?
Ours was simple.
Patriotic breakfast.
Crafting.
Napping.
Lots of swimming.
Then more swimming.
 Matchy matchers.
 Vintage sparklers.
(All fireworks are illegal where we live.  Even snakes. Boo.)
 Little lawbreakers.
Sparkly happiness/ scaredness.
BBQ.  Apple pie.  Ice cream.
Dear friends.
Topped off by the accidental surprise that we could see four
different community firework displays from our front yard.
Kid in pajamas, no crowds.  Fireworks all around.
That is my kind of Fourth.
Yay!

  1. We were able to view fireworks yesterday thanks to neighbors who put on their own display.


    I remember when fireworks were banned here too. We would still set them off at our cousin's farm. It was exciting to see if the sheriff would show up or not! :o)

    I think I could have that breakfast anytime! :o)

  7. Sounds like a lovely 4th. We were able to watch fireworks from our front porch too...we may have found a new tradition. Now I want some apple pie.

  8. Looks like fun. Were you in Fresno area? I only ask because that first picture looks just like a barn that is in Fresno on the 41.
    Your family is adorable.
