INDEPENDENCE DAY USA

We had a fabulous Fouth.  
I first started the day by working.  I am a cleaning lady for those of you who care.  Yup, I have callouss on my hands, like a good old hard working lady.  
(Any one wants me to clean their house, I charge $20 an hour)
Came home and took a nap. (nap time is my favorite time of day:)
Then went to a swimming BBQ at a friends house with some good friends.  It was tons of fun.
We let the kids stay up late, and we went to the fireworks show in Apache Junction.  I must say that I was very impressed with the show.  It was long and they had some fantastic fire works. 

Here are some pictures of our day.

Here's Joiley practicing looking up at fireworks.  
The girls love swimming.  Good times.
Waiting for the fireworks show. It was hot but not too hot.  Lainey has red eyes from swimming too long with no goggles on.  
Let me just let you in on some of our conversation that night.  
"When are they going to start, I'm need to go potty,  Are they going to start yet, I'm thirsty, I'm hot, I don't want to sit on the little chair, Jolie just fell in the rocks, My shirt is stuck to my back, I'm tired, Are they almost over, I'm tired, I want a big chair, My eyes hurt, I'm hot, You better wake up and watch the fireworks or we won't come next year, and you better enjoy them too . . ."
Other than that we had a good time. (I think)

Jolie was a little concerned when they first started shooting off.  
 She didn't know what to think of them.  After about 2 minutes she was done watching.
My camera has an option to take pictures of fireworks.  
Here are some I got.
 I figured out afterwards that I really needed to hold the camera very still while it took the picture. 
Oh well. I think they still look pretty cool.


Happy 4th of July!!!!
