July 4th - At home this year!

After Rhett spent the morning painting Raly's new room, we headed to Town Center for their July 4th festivities which started immediately with sugar. They even shared with me. Yum, yum...I truly love cotton candy! Raly waited for approximately 2 hours to get her face painted. Daddy was patient enough to wait with her while Reese and I played games. Raly was determined to get her face painted as a dog; however...... she ended up hating it and as soon as she got to the car, we wiped it off. We thought it was pretty cute, but she despised the tongue...she did ask for a boxer!

Yet another upset child! OH BROTHER (literally Adam, I think he gets this behavior from you!). Raly and Rhett were lighting off fireworks/firecrackers and Reese was terrified...REALLY TERRIFIED! Poor guy, we all thought it was pretty funny!

Raly getting a lesson in lighting fireworks!

Later on, he calmed down, but he still didn't like them much!

After lighting off our fireworks and getting rained on, we headed to our bedroom for quite an impressive show to the east of our house. Reese liked the big display much better from inside.
