Mountain Trip Part VI

June 28th- July 5th: 4th of July Fireworks Fun

On July 3rd, we headed up to the golf course around sunset, because we had been told it was the best spot to see the fireworks show. We were a little uncertain as to how the girls would do staying up that late, but I am so thankful we decided to risk it!! Such a special, magical night! The perfect way to cap off our vacation!!

Rich and his girls scoping out a good place to watch the show.

This weather! Paradise!!

She thinks she is big.

I showed Blakely how if you throw a flower off a bridge up stream, and then run to the other side of the bridge you can see it float downstream. This apparently was the best discovery ever, because she then proceeded to do this 100x. She would run off and pick a flower or two, run back the bridge and toss it over the side and then run to other side of the bridge to watch the flower float by. She loved it!

Picking wildflowers.


At dusk, the fireworks started!!

She got a little bit excited!

It was so magical! It was chilly, but Blakely was still barefoot and running around! She loved the pink ones and the "pom-pom" ones! There were 3 different sites - north (in front of us), east (right of us) and to the south (behind us). You never knew which site was going to go off next so we were always spinning around and pointing. Blakely loved it.


Blakely loved it so much, that on July 4th Daddy put on our own Redneck Fireworks show in the parking lot.



(This is not real... Richard thought it would be hilarious to send out this "Bad Dad" pic. Heehee.)

Love the joy on her little face!!


Happy 4th of July, Y'all!!


On July 5th, we packed it up and headed home. Such a perfect vacation with memories I will cherish forever!! Can't wait to go back next year!!
