Fourth of July for us.

We had some of Adam's side of the family for fourth of July. Brent and Lalani were on their way for a vacation back east, and we partied on the fourth while they were here. This was Lucas' first chance to really participate because he has just been too little the last two years. He really enjoyed the snakes. Mom had to build a tower of matches over the snakes to get them hot enough long enough to work. The fountains were fun too, and he clapped with excitement. He also enjoyed some sparklers with his cousin Megan. It is really fun to celebrate Independence day out here because they go all out. It looks like a professional fireworks show on almost every could-a-sac. It was so pretty. It was also nice because Lucas was ready for be a little early, and we didn't make it to the Derby city's display.
