Just a really quick post with pictures from your first Independence Day :)
Daddy and I were highly ridiculous and thought you might enjoy looking at fireworks to celebrate.
At 9pm.
Otherwise known as your bedtime.
We loaded you up in the car and took off in search of frozen yogurt to eat while we watched the celebration, but didn't realize that Peachwave closed at 5pm. Fail #1. Since Kansas doesn't allow its residents the opportunity to light fireworks in our own yards, they offer free firework displays to the public. We drove to the Great Mall of the Great Plains, only to run into Fail #2. The mall parking lot was packed. Like...people-were-parked-on-the-side-of-the-road-and-at-QuikTrip packed. So yeah. We didn't stay. But that ended up being okay because you fell asleep by that point anyway! Fail #3 came when I tried unsuccessfully to get you out of the car seat without waking you up. I WILL master that skill one of these days!
We'll do better next year, little button! Happy 4th of July!!
Love,
That outfit is adorable!
ReplyDeleteAnd we stayed home. Our dogs hate fireworks and annoying neighbors kept popping them all night. They aren't banned here! You could pop them all week too.
So adorable!
ReplyDeleteThat is the cutest dress! Adorable. There are laws prohibiting individual fireworks in Nashville, too, but nobody paid attention to it. The police couldn't get around to everyone fast enough, so everyone pretty much gets away with it. We're in a smaller town now and we were out of town on the 4th, so I'm not sure if they ignore the law here.
