Independence Day!

Hi All,



As I'm sure you've guessed by the title, this post will be about my July 4th. My family had a swell day, and I certainly hope yours did as well! We don't have too many July 4th traditions in my household, but we do have a couple! Generally we have a typical American barbecue and go to see fireworks. Pretty much what almost all Americans do. Because we live in Germany we have to go on one of the military bases to see fireworks. This year they were spectacular!! The fireworks were so well coordinated with the music they played! It was quite impressive!



Andrew and I decided to give our little doggie a bath in our backyard since she looked overheated. She looks terrified in the pictures, but I swear she appreciated her cold bath!! haha












 My outfit for the 4th. Yes, I used my West Side Story costume. No, the petticoat is not at all comfortable.








 Most of the family. My dad was taking the picture and my eldest sister is in Romania taking care of little babies. She'll be back next month!!



Dessert: homemade chocolate milkshakes!!!!




Unfortunately I did not get any pictures later that evening when we went to watch the fireworks. I thought it might be best if I enjoyed the moment rather than take photos the whole time. I hope you all were able to enjoy time with family on this special occasion!
