Independence Day

We had a great, and relaxing 4th this year. We actually all woke up early for some odd reason and were really hungry, so we went out to IHOP for breakfast. It was yummy (probably because we were all so hungry!) We came home and just relaxed and cooked up some things for our BBQ that night. We went over to the Sifuentes' house for a terrific BBQ and some great fireworks!Maddie even got to do her first sparklers. She loved them, and did great, other than burning her forehead and touching the end of the sparkler after it burned out, and burnt her finger! It didn't stop her from wanting to do more! She also did her first "pop-its", or "snappers"... whatever you want to call them. They were always "pop-its" to us growing up. She loved stomping on them!Other than getting eaten alive by mosquitoes, we had a great 4th! Mike was in heaven setting off all those fireworks he bought, and we enjoyed watching them. Even Maddie really liked all the fireworks!
