I started out my Independence Day by staining the outside furniture. I think that it turned out pretty well!

This afternoon MZ and MBB came over for the festivities and a BBQ. We had a lot of fun in the gorgeous weather on the deck. Drinking our Tinchas of course…

Then we decided we needed a fire to make some s’mores. It was a great night for one and was fun waiting for the fireworks. Beth loved trying the Reese’s Cup s’more.

Finally we had fireworks! The city shoots them off right across the street from us. While they aren’t super clear, we could see enough to enjoy.
