We had a great 4th of July! It was a dream come true. It started with a pancake breakfast at the church with great company. Caden and Ryan are addicted to pancakes. We then went to the parade but it was mostly a campaigning function. We later had some friends over for a BBQ in which Trevor cooked some of his famous burgers. The are the best!!! That evening, we went to a fireworks show put on by the Med Students. Everyone pitched in a few dollars and they bought everything you could imagine. In Missouri anything goes. It was like watching the city fireworks back home. We ended the evening with a fountain display by our neighbors that was awesome. The only bummer was that Ryan wanted to buy some tanks but they were out. We ended up buying a hummer and a fire engine. The hummer cost $8 and was worthless and the fire engine cost $2 and was impressive. My neighbor spent $20 total on her set of fountains and we watched them for 30 minutes. Next time I'll go with her to buy fireworks. By the way this was her first time buying fireworks and lighting them off in the street. Between the excitement of the kids and the awe of her face it was totally worth it. What a great day!!
