Happy 4th

This year we kept things fairly simple. I let the kids pick out a few tiny fireworks at the stand and a box of sparklers. After that we drove over to Manassas and found a grocery store hill with a great view of the fireworks. I think we may make that a tradition every year. Parking was easy and it didn't take us long to get home. But it wasn't the same without Shaun. He had to be on his way to scout camp by 1:30 am the next morning and he wasn't nearly ready. I think we'll try out Alexandria's fireworks next week and hopefully he'll be home in time to join us.
