The Third of July

Have I mentioned that Independence Day lasts for at least three days around here? Well, it does. We started on the third. We went to festivals and carnivals and such, but I had no batteries in my camera. Well, I did but they were dead. That night, we bought batteries and then went to Namma's house because she lives right next to the fireworks. The kids and Doug sparklered while Sophie and I snuggled.
Here they are in all their sparkler-y cuteness.


The fireworks were fantastic, as always. And I win the prize for making sparkler, a perfectly unassuming noun, into a verb and an adjective in this brilliant post. The end.

Once you know the rules, you can break them correctly! Fun times! I wish I had been there!

I've got to say that your use of the word sparkler was my favorite part of this blog. Well....maybe that and a girl in monkey jammies.
