july 4th week end

We we're going to visit Ronald, our third oldest child but things around here change fast and yes, that didn't happen! We bought a lot of fire works but we can't do them in our city, so we went downtown and waited till 10 pm for our local fire work display. This was after I cooked and Bar-B-Q'd for everyone, yummy! We headed out early, left the house at 6 pm and arrived at our spot atop a parking structure at 6:20 pm, way to early, we had to wait until 10pm for the display. At least, like always I have to think ahead, many people pack the lot and I wanted to get there with enough time to get a good spot, and we did, ha! In the meantime, we light up sparklers for the kids but time went slow, if it wasn't one thing it was another, somebody wanted to come home early, but we made it to see the show. thank God!
