Birthday Fireworks

We had a fun opportunity to go up to Diamond Lake in Michigan and visit some friends. The lake was shooting off fireworks on Sat June 30 and so they invited us to come up. How fun it was to be out on their boat and see the fireworks. They felt like they were coming right at us and exploding right over our heads! The girls loved it! Cora kept pointing and grunting and after Jodi got over the "scary" part she would tell us the colors lighting up the sky. Looking at their faces was so fun. To see the way a child's eyes light up with a new experience is such a fun part of being a parent! (I need to remember these moments when the "other" moments of parenting come up!)
Happy Birthday America! We love our country! How blessed we are to live in such a place! God Bless America!
