4th of July with the Thompsons

We had a great time on the 4th of July. We took the girls boating for the 1st 1/2 of the day at what we thought was a not so well known location - well there were about 8 boats there when we arrived - so much for that theory! In the evening we went over to our neighbor's house, the Thompsons for a firework show like no other. I swear there were at least 200 sparklers. There were several boys lighting off fireworks at the same time - pretty much controlled chaos (my new favorite word).  Too bad Jerome city opted out of their usual celebration at the High School but we had fun without them!


Now would be the time to gun the engine

Allie is still not brave enough to get on the tube

Doesn't the water look nice and clean?!?

The sparklers were lit from a fire pit - great idea!
