4th of July 2013

Another 4th of July in California

Dad is enjoying the afternoon with the family - getting ready for the fireworks.  I know - you never thought I would take time to kick back, but the heat over here this week is overwhelming - so it is really the only sane thing to do.

We just had a few close friends over.  Just kidding - these are our neighbors for the neighborhood fireworks on the 3rd of July.

Summer and David are all ready as well.  David used to be afraid of the fireworks when he was younger.  Now he sees them as just part of hanging out with mom and dad.  Hope that lasts a long time.  We know we will not be as much fun as his friends in the not too distant future - so we are enjoying it while it lasts.

Check out the view behind us.  What a great venue - in the daytime.

Of course, we have found it is best to view the fireworks at night regardless of the scenery during the day (unless you are in San Francisco where all you see are blotchy colors because of the fog that rolls in).  

Hope your 4th is as fun as ours.
