Preparing for the Fourth

This year will be Emily's first time to see the Fourth of July Fireworks at the park! We've been prepping her for about a week, which probably means she'll scream through the entire thing (every time we try to prep her for anything she usually goes bonkers when it actually comes.. other than Benjamin I guess), but we're looking forward to it. It's been about four years since I've gone to the park for the fireworks, and I LOVE going out there!

Who doesn't enjoy the hot, muggy, mosquito infested, smelly people, loud music, dogs everywhere event? It's all worth it when the "ooohs" and "aaaaahs" come out :)

Emily and I swam at the yellow park for the first time tonight. The first thing Emily realized as she spit out some water was that this one is filtered with salt water, not chlorine. It was an interesting difference to be sure. We swam around for a while, then some other people showed up and swam with us. Leslie and Benjamin did laps around the walking sidewalk while we swam, and it was lots of fun!

Plans for tomorrow are: swim some more, see Pat, eat some more, sleep a little, swim some more, play, and sleep some more! We love summer!
