4th of July

The weather took a turn and it has been chilly and cold for almost a week now.  The 3rd wasn't so bad and it was good the lake did their community fireworks on the 3rd because we woke up to rain and the parade was a downpour.  It cleared off a little for our party, but it wasn't the warmest 4th.  There was a small crowd, so it was all good.

The weather was good enough for fireworks and the kids spent a lot of time on the beach lighting them.  Wade was a great pyrotechnician!

After dinner, I took Lacey and Destiny on the tube and we had a great laugh.  Her kids were egging me on to make her dump which eventually she did, but it took a lot of fancy driving.  After that, her kids wanted to go.  Reggie was watching and I know he thought they were crazy!  Lacey was encouraging me to make them dump and they were loving it.  Eventually, Destiny fell of, likely because she couldn't feel her hands from the freezing cold and gripping so hard.  I couldn't get a picture because I was driving, but they caught some serious air!
