We had a great 4th of July this year! We started off the morning right with a Pancake Breakfast at the park boasting a flag ceremony, great food, and lots of patriotic songs. Then we rode our bikes to the beach and had perfect weather and water temperature! Thrifty's ice cream on the ride home, a BBQ at my parents for dinner, and then we were off to see the fireworks.
We went to the Lake and had almost the exact same seats as last year. Libby was a wild woman inside my belly last year and proved to like the fireworks just as much this year from outside of the womb! ;)
Libby and Syd, the BCF's (Best Cousins Forever!)
Some of the gang: Mom, Jen, Britt, Mike, and Brad
The Stewarts (minus Jason who had to stay home and work...boooo!) came to town for the week and it was so fun getting to hang out with them! 
My cute, patriotic parents
Libby and her daddy loved the show!
The most memorable part of the night: while the city's official firework show was going on, some people lit off some illegal fireworks from the houses on the hill. It wasn't long before Mike noticed that the hill below had caught on fire! We stood there and watched it burn from a safe distance on the other side of the lake for over an hour. Then Satan Ranger, as well lovingly refer to her, came and kicked us out. What a night!
