I remember it as one of my favorite holidays as a kid. Summertime up north, well, nothing beats the feeling. Something about the long, gray winters makes you appreciate every hot, humid day and stretched out evening that you can get. I love the fireworks, the red, white & blue, the patriotism for our country. The smokey smell of barbecues and bonfires for roasting smores. The sparklers and driveway fireworks before watching the grand display. It's summertime Americana at it's best.
This year we headed to Auburndale to celebrate at Ren's parents' lake house.
Patriotic Cupcakes. Good idea... huge mess!
And you know I can't resist a good reason for a festive hairbow:
Pooltime
Finish it off with a PERFECT sunset and watching fireworks go off in every direction around the serene lake.
Yup, it was a good day.
Happy Birthday America!
