Celebrating the 4th of July...

After 12 years of missing all the celebrations involved with the 4th of July, Dan finally had the day off and enjoyed the festivities with us. Our  4th began on Sunday morning when we attended the annual 4th of July service at Smyrna Methodist Church (this is where Bob served before he passed away). They always have a great service and then a wonderful hotdog meal and water fight afterwards. It was sad to be there without Bob around, but we were welcomed by that wonderful group of people. On Monday morning, we enjoyed a relaxing few hours at the pool with some friends, and luckily we were able to leave before the crowd hit and the weather got too hot. My sister-in-law, Emily, hosts a wonderful party with great food and fun times. We joined their party and spent the late afternoon/evening eating, catching up with friends and fireworks. Thankfully Grandma volunteered to take Emma home for bath and bed time, so she missed the "dreaded" fireworks and got a good nights sleep! Maybe next year she'll enjoy the fireworks!
