Happy 4th of July!!!!



Our hats off to the men and women who have served and those who are currently doing their duty to protect our American freedoms as we celebrate the Independence holiday. We appreciate it and thank you for a job well done.

Manning had a great 1st 4th of July. His mom had an even better one b/c I didn't yet have to worry about my little guy running around begging to light and shoot off fireworks. I'm sure that time is soon to come, but I was able to enjoy this year's holiday with no worries! We had a relaxing day and really just enjoyed hanging out as a family. Manning slept most of the day sleeping, but was definitely wide awake by the evening when dad decided to go buy some fireworks. We couldn't really justify celebrating Manning's first Independence day without him having never even seen a firework. So Grandma Linda came over later in the day and we shot off our goodies. Manning was very observant of the fireworks and would watch dad light the firework and would even be able to follow it high up into the sky. He had a lot better idea of what was going on than I imagined he would. He was definitely curious to try and figure out what the bright lights and loud noises were coming from!
