It was really strange this year being just our little family at home for the holiday. I have tests sandwiching this long weekend, so it made the most sense to stay home.
Saturday we BBQ'd and cooked burgers and steaks. We still have leftovers (yea!). We bought a cheap pack of fireworks and split them up... half for last night and half for tonight.
The girls had a great time with the sparklers - they danced and played "The Last Airbender" (as firebenders). Jeff did a great job lighting the fireworks... he only scared the girls once when he pretended he was going to jump through the middle of the fireworks.
We did get an unwanted surprise toward the beginning... the sprinklers decided to come on. I don't know if you noticed in the pictures, but our chairs and the fireworks were parked on the grass. We quickly got up and ran and got the fireworks to dry ground... then I braved the sprinklers and rescued the chairs. The hot night air felt a lot better once I was a little wet... felt great! :)
Here are some pictures of our fun night!
