Fourth of July Fireworks and Dessert

BIG Excitement this year...we got to go out on the boat to watch the fireworks. Grammy and Poppy graciously volunteered to stay home with Lily, so Steve, Jesse and I took Bobo (Chris), Rawlins and Frances out to see the show. It was very cool!

As we zoomed out on the lake towards the tip of the peninsula, I wondered just how many boats there would be.



Come to find out, there was a small city out on the water. We failed to get a picture of all the boats, but just trust me...there were a ton. The fireworks were beautiful. It is quite an interesting experience to sit on the water to watch the show.

This is my favorite shot...

And, of course, we had a very special dessert to enjoy when we got home. This beautiful cake was decorated by Rawlins (the strawberry stripes) and Frances (the blueberry stars). Not only was the cake lovely to look at, but it was very yummy too! (Thanks Grammy!)
