July 4th, 2020

Our 4th of July started out pretty normal. Aaron had to work and the girls and I did every-day, normal things. But once Aaron was off, the fun began!

It started with our DIY Bug Off because the bugs are out and they love me (and Emmaline!)

I also stuck a roller-top on some peppermint and rolled it on my ankles, wrists and behind my ears. Cooling and kept the bugs off!

Note: the next day, I took inventory and only had a couple bites on places I didn’t spray well or at all – so this stuff works!!!

Rick (my father-in-law) loaded up with fireworks which has become a tradition. Boys set up a show for the ladies πŸ™‚

The girls loved playing with the sparklers and they both did a great job staying safe. No burns here, thank you very much!

Of course, we snagged a family photo πŸ˜‰

The big girls absolutely loved the firework display and cheered after every shot. Paisley, on the other hand, stayed up past her bedtime but passed out halfway through the show. πŸ˜›

Happy Birthday America!
