There aren't a lot of advantages to living so far from family but there are a couple and one of them is that on occasion, you can do whatever you want on the little holidays without worrying about disrupting any family celebrations. This 4th of July we decided last minute to take to the road and headed up to Huntsville area, to the Bridge Street shopping area. They've got a man-made lake that you can rent paddle boats for and paddle around. Given the heat, we opted for the electric boat.
Each of the boys had a turn to drive. I love Tyler's gaping expression of excitement/horror while Connor was at the wheel.
And what's the 4th of July without a few fireworks. Not old enough to know any better, the kids were elated to twirl a few sparklers and watch a few fountains. Zach fell asleep halfway through but Connor and Tyler were all amped up and stayed armed with their water guns til the show was over. :)
