For July 4th, we gathered with neighbors again! I love that our neighbors not only enjoy spending time together, but that they actually seek it out. It may just be a handful of gatherings a year, but I'm so thankful for the homey feeling of our cul-de-sac.
A favorite feature of our Independence Day gathering was, again, the fun fireworks! We have a sweet neighbor who brings them, and the kids love them. This year, she even brought simple snakes, and you would have thought she brought unlimited ice cream haha. No need for the expensive explosives...the kids loved watching the little snakes curl up and smolder and were perfectly content. But they did also enjoy the sparklers, a bee, and Dave the minion who put on quite the fireworks show :)
We're thankful for good food, fun fireworks, and neighbor friends. Happy Birthday, America!
