4th of July...

We were invited to our next door neighbor's house for the 4th of July. It was a really great party with lots of kids for Adam and Harper to play with and lots of adults for Andy and I to chat with. There was lots of yummy food and treats - including an icebox s'mores cake I made (recipe here).

We offered up our backyard for the fireworks portion of the evening. Turns out the neighbors behind us were also having a party and putting off fireworks so by the end of the evening we had one big joint grand finale - it was the perfect celebration of proud Americans taking time to honor and appreciate our freedoms. God bless the USA!
