Celebrating the 4th

Friday night we went to Chris Talley's house for a BBQ. We had a great time and met some new friends. Kylee ate her first rice crispy treat, went on her first tractor ride, and saw fireworks for the first time. She hated the loud popping firecrackers. She takes after her mommy that way! So, we spent a lot of the time in Chris's house with the kitty and the desserts. Kylee played with the cat while I stuffed my face with sweets.

Saturday we went to grandpa's house for another BBQ. As usual Kylee had a blast playing with Uncle Tony.




I took Kylee home for a short nap. Then we picked daddy up from grandpa's and went to Aunt Pattys for homemade ice cream and swimming. We were excited to get Kylee into the big pool for the first time this summer, but she wasn't interested.


She did however enjoy standing outside of the water and splashing in the hot tub.


Later in the evening we went back to grandpa's house for fireworks. Grandpa has a huge window from his living room to his backyard. So Tony, Kylee, and I had a quiet, air conditioned, front row seat to our own firework show put on by the rest of the Puccino clan. It was perfect!! Kylee loved watching all of the sparkly fireworks. Each time she saw one she'd exclaim "Wow! Crackle sky!"


The Fourth of July has always been one of my least favorite holidays, but I have to admit I really enjoyed this one.
