Believe me they were yummy... they went really well with Gigi's homemade ice cream.
dessert before dinner is always better....
A little frustrating at first for Paxson. He couldn't hold the entire cupcake and take a bite. After a few bites he decided that he could take it apart and eat it himself.

The city allows you to shoot fireworks at one of the parks in town. It was a really great place to admire fireworks. The fire department keeps a truck parked for safety which I thought was a wonderful idea! Everyone "oohed and awed" and took turns lighting their fireworks. We went the evening of the 3rd as well as the 4th. however the evening of the 4th we were literally attacked by gnats. You would have thought the smells and smoke would have detoured them. It was awful. I have never seen anything like it. Pure crazy!

Parker assisting with a roman candle. It's so hard they simply do not understand why they can't light them all. From the morning of the 3rd (We waited to buy fireworks because we knew how tempting they would be.) Parker pretty much asked every minute if we could go shoot some. Good thing we bought plenty and bought a lot that we could do during the day.

Dandy bought glow sticks for our night swimming adventures. The pictures aren't the greatest. Flash or no flash....
After swimming we continued the tradition of cooking out (again). Had a post swim meal and headed into the house around 11:00.

Thank you to so many who have devoted their lives to keeping our country free. God Bless you and your families!
