Fourth of July!

We were so excited to see celebrate the fourth of July in our nation's capital this summer. All of the wives planned to go in the afternoon with picnic food and blankets and save a spot for the show. Well of course the forecast is RAINY! So several wives backed out as they didn't want to be sitting in the rain- and there was a planned rain date for the fireworks, so there was a chance that they may not have even been any. I was determined not to miss it, besides what else were we gonna do!

So Allie and I loaded the stroller and went, at first it was great. But the rain clouds came and it started pouring all over our stuff! We all huddled together and tried to cover our blankets, food, and selves with umbrellas until the rain stopped.

Finally just before the men arrived the rain ceased and a short while later the fireworks began! They were GREAT ! It was extra special watching them in our nation's capital with friends who believed in the same things as us, and shared our love for this country!
