A Proper 4th
It is not a proper July 4th until the boom of a firework sets off a car alarm, and you hear the rum-tum-tumbly of a distant finale as you sit with your little one on your lap, oohing and ahhing as fireworks light the sky and the smoke cloud wanders over you like a morning fog. #America
Mind Your Business
Just got scolded by a child for smoking at the parade, outside....10 feet from him, and this was OK with his mom. Wow..... Just make it illegal already, since its so damn evil. But the alcoholics, please continue to make asses of yourself at every public event imaginable, and that will be acceptable. Sigh. My children were taught to mind their own damn business!! - Lisa
The kid that scolded Lisa for smoking - an ugly little androgynous brat - later dropped his/her flag on the ground and got barked at by me. Unacceptable. #UglyPeopleApparentlyDontLoveAmerica
The 4th of July Parade
Ready for the 4th of July parade. Smiley and GC chose to stay home, earning many negative brownie points. Lauren is walking in the parade with the Girl Scouts
My LK. Good job in the parade Junie!
Vintage Baseball in the Park
Watching two teams play 1860's era baseball to celebrate Independence Day. Happy to have Lauren along to keep me company.
Junie got to run the bases!

Big Bang 2016
I dropped the family off at the lake for the Big Bang fireworks but was excused and came home to prep the house for the 4th. Shady of me, true, but last year I took the two younger kids by *myself* so karma calls it fair. Of course, that was also the night a big fight broke out by where we were seated and the cops came roaring in, soooo. . . Ah. They'll be fine.

The Finale to our Fourth of July
The night ended with a firepit, s'mores, and nighttime swimming and trampolining, while I finally got a chance to watch the disputed Bradley-Vargas bout. (thank goodness for a. hostess with HBO on Demand lol) GREAT DAY!
