A day off in the middle of the week with the family is certainly a treat. We enjoyed our 4th of July here in Albuquerque, and it was a hot one! We started the day off at the ward breakfast at the park. We had some great burritos and Asher had a great time letting us chase him all over. Corey had to buy some fireworks (is it some unwritten rule of the male species that to play with fire= masculinity??), but sadly, the wind was CRAZY, so we still have a bunch to play with this weekend. We did decide to keep Asher up late so we could watch some bigger fireworks, so we drove to a good vantage point and watched the show. Asher thought everything except the fireworks were interesting, so I guess we have a couple years until he changes his mind. Ah, kids.
I think Independence Day is wonderful, especially at this time when we have so many fighting for the freedoms all of us want to maintain. So many have and will continue to sacrifice for the opportunities we love and take advantage of. What a great heritage and what a wonderful country we live in. God Bless America!!
