Independence Day

I had the girls on July 3rd and we went to Mike's house to hang out with friends from church.  He spent way too much on fireworks and the girls had fun lighting them off.  At one point, Mike suggested that I move my car further away.  Maggie didn’t realize what I was doing and lit a firework as I was walking down the driveway. I thought I said “ah shit” under my breath but Maggie heard me & then loudly announced to everyone else that I cussed and when she thought they didn’t believe her she said “no, I heard her say shit!” Which made them laugh even harder & Andrew yelled that he probably would have said the same thing if he was that close!  love when my kids rat me out 

The girls spent the day with their dad on July 4th, but as a family they weren't doing much for fireworks.  The girls drove over to my house and I drove us to Waverly to watch their show.  We got there at 8 pm and probably didn't need to get there until 9 pm.  The show started at 10 pm.  We sat in our lawn chairs right next to the car and had a great view.  When we got home, Philomena drove them back to their dad's to finish his weekend.  Great news was that I didn't have to buy any fireworks this year!
