Our Fourth of July

We have a family tradition that we stay at a local hotel to watch fireworks. We stay across the street from our local park. We get a fantastic view of the fireworks, without being smothered by thousands of people, it is cool inside, and we enjoy the pool for a couple of days! We do walk over to the park to see what types of food the vendors are offering, we always end up getting elephant ears...yummy!

Marlin looking down at me, he was laughing and smiling.

He loved the hotel, the new surroundings.

Sarah loves this water fountain...she wanted her picture taken.

When the fireworks started, Madelyn was holding Marlin. After three booms he got scared, for just a couple of minutes, so daddy took him.

This year, the only issue was the darn street light! But, other then that, it was still great!!!

See how nice this is...the kids love it and so do we :)

And we don't have to deal with the crowd leaving...it really is perfect for our family!

I hope everyone enjoyed their fourth of July, Happy Independence!
