Our July 4
th festivities were a lot of fun this year! We started the day off by making, what I have decided will be a tradition from now on, a flag cake. Cami loved helping mix the ingredients together and adding the strawberries and blueberries.
We then headed over to Grammy and Papaw's house (minus Grammy because she was out of town) to enjoy some swimming and cooking out!
Later that night we went to see the fireworks show. Neal and I both were unsure of how Cami would do with staying up late-the fireworks didn't begin until 9:45 and Cami usually is in bed by 7:30 or 8:00! Cami is also scared of loud noises so we thought she might get pretty upset at the sound of all the
fireworks. But, she did great!
Not one time did she cry or whine about being tired-she even stayed awake for the drive home! She did seem to be a little nervous and was quiet when the fireworks first started and held on tight to Neal and I, but she eventually got excited and would call out the colors of each firework. July 4
th is one of mine and Neal's favorite holidays and I'm so excited to be able to carry on
traditions like watching fireworks, BBQ
's, and flag cakes with our very own family!
