This is the first year in several summer that everyone has been together on the Fourth of July. We had an amazing day beginning with a family hike...
... then a BBQ lunch with Grandma, Grandpa, TJ, and Alicia. The four of them were working hard to move Alicia from one of Teri and Tony's rental properties to another.
Then we finished off the evening with fireworks. Lionel was amazed! And our neighbors lit off SO many fireworks that we got to enjoy an great show.
Meanwhile Michael, Hazel, and Eliza worked at Stadium of Fire to earn the last bit of money for the girls' choir tour. They had a good time and loved the fireworks afterwards, but didn't love the hours and hours of traffic they sat in before making it home.
We probably should have spent the day packing, but I'm so glad we took a day off to enjoy time as a family and appreciate the freedoms we enjoy.
