We had quite a lot going on the 4th this year! Plainfield always does their fireworks on the 3rd so we headed to St. Mary's to watch. That has become the normal spot. And since it's the third, that is also our anniversary. And the church we got married at. Here I am with some of my bridesmaids.
We walked to the high school as they were having a patriotic picnic they called it. There was touch-a-truck, jumps, and other things to do but it was super crowded. Gracie got a hat though.
And the little ones got to go in a fire truck.
We went and saw the helicpoter too but we didn't go in it.
Gracie wanted to try riding these big bikes.
After a little bit, we headed back to our spot. We pulled out the snacks.
And we attempted to take a group shot with all of our friends.
Then to pass some time, the kids did some pop-its.
And we had to break our the sparklers before dark because the kids just couldn't wait any longer!
Even Lindsay got in on the action.
Soon it was dark enough of the fireworks to start and they put on a great show.
The next day was the 4th so we headed to the beach with Annette and Kevin and friends. Colton came too and Evie held his hand to make sure her made it to the beach safely.
The kids had fun swimming.
And of course, playing in the sand.
The girls made sure to take care of Colton.
And Presley and Sean played baseball.
We did more sparklers too.
Then it was time to get settled on the beach for another fireworks show.
The beach club put on a great show as well.
