Fourth of July Fun

Yesterday we had fun and celebrated the Fourth with family. We had dinner over at my parents house and then my dad had gotten us all tickets to the local collegiate baseball game, the Kitsap Bluejackets. It was lots of fun and we won!! Friends, John and Jenny, joined us so it was good to catch up some with them as well. I wasn't sure how the girls were going to do at the game, especially since it didn't start until 730pm but they were awesome. Angel loved getting up and down a million times from her seat and eating LOTS of peanuts that Poppy brought. Emma managed to snooze a bit with Marmee and enjoyed watching all the action around her. The fireworks after the game were very pretty, although Angel wasn't thrilled with the "scary" noises but Emma loved them. Angel woke up this morning and told her Papa, "fireworks all done, me scared, me watch like this (as she closed her eyes) and Emma watch like this (as she opened her eyes really wide)." So cute!! My mom made us Whiskey Sours, and I can't wait to have another one tomorrow....yummy!! Hope everyone had a safe and happy Fourth and remembered to say thanks for the wonderful freedom we enjoy and pray for all the soldiers who work to keep it that way!!
