We had a wonderful 4th of July!
This is just a quick recap of what out 4th of July looked like last year... but, even though our paradise wasn't quite ready for us, we still had a wonderful 4th...! Now for this year, it was a big difference. The water was beautifully blue (thanks dad), there were pretty flowers and decor (thanks Tink) and there was a beautiful sky (thanks GOD)! Oh and we can't forget the food: fried catfish, fries, hush puppies, fruit and dip, chips and dip and peach cobbler (thanks Jay) with ice cream. It turned out to be a wonderful day. I was worried that we would get rained on, but we didn't. Our cousin Haily came over with her 2 little girls, Caitlyn and Layla. Which by the way, she's having number 3, another little girl in September. These two chicks were hilarious. We had the best time with them. We swam all day long.
So after everyone was extremely worn out, and ready for bed, we decided that we would try to make the fireworks show in town. The sky was getting black and the clouds were heavy, but we went for it anyway. We got all the way there and it started to rain. It was just sprinkling at first and everyone was starting to leave, so we were able to get a decent spot. After being there 5 minutes and getting situated...it came a downpour...of course! Here are the pics of tryin to get the girls ready and then some of the fireworks. Although we had to watch most of the show from the inside of the truck, it was still beautiful. Brings back old memories of going every year to sit on the levee in Vidalia and watch 4th of July firecrackers when we were little! Layla had enough....
