Our Independence Day



I love the Fourth of July. There is something about seeing fighter jets over head, American flags hanging off of fence posts and huge fireworks shows that makes me feel proud. Proud of our freedom and proud of what America is.

We had a nice Fourth of July weekend. We spent Saturday at home and then headed to the Placid Lake Cabin on Sunday morning. It was packed full of family, kids and dogs! Sunday and Monday we were soaking up all the lakeside fun! It was relaxing. I even got some sleep Sunday night!

Addison loves fireworks - from a far distance! The noise from the fireworks at the end of the dock really scared her. She cried when they went off and made daddy cover her ears the entire time.
On the way home we stopped at Trixi's in Ovando for a burger. We pulled into Helena around 10 pm. As we drove from Helena to East Helena we watched a huge firework show. We pulled to the side of the road once in East Helena and watched an amazing finale. Great timing! The rest of the night our little community of East Helena was exploding with fireworks. We were so amazed at the amount of fireworks in this teeny, tiny community.
