{4th of July}

This is definitely one of my most favorite holidays spent here in VA. Such an old-time, small-town kind of good-feeling holiday. Does that make sense?
We had a BBQ at our house on Saturday night and then we headed to Waterford for fireworks. Its a fact that Izzy HATES fireworks. She had her hands on her ears 30 minutes before the show started. We went to the parade and celebration on Sunday and then had another BBQ at the big farm. My kids couldn't dream of being with anyone else than their cousins. In fact, the older boys lit all the fireworks themselves and loved every minute of it. good times...good times...
