Happy 4th

This 4th all of our neighbors celebrated with a Block Party. There was tons of food, plenty of drinks, and the rain held off until later in the night. The kids didn't really mind getting wet, and us grown-ups huddled around coolers of beer in the warmth of someone's carport.

Late into the night there were allegedly fireworks (and later police), but I slept (passed out) through the whole extravaganza.

I asked Ry what he thinks of when he sees our flag. He said "Respect...we have to respect the flag." Then he asked to look at pictures of soldiers on the computer.

Although random, it was also touching.

Proud to be an American...Happy 4th of July!!
