Happy Birthday America!

Thursday night the Navy Base through their annual 4th of July celebration complete with lots of FREE fun for the kiddos. There was face painting, which the girls wanted desperately to do, jumpy castles, slides, and even a carnival ride. And then the food.....you could get anything from hot dogs and fries, to steak on a stick and funnel cakes and shaved ice. My dinner....funnel cake and a pina colada shaved ice. Nutritionally lacking, but it's only once a year!
The fireworks were really good. Not as long as in previous years, but I can't complain. We spent the evening with the Kings and the Colo'n family. It was a great time. And then we came home to get ready for an entire day and night out on the boat on the 4th........














Kris, Jenn, Susie, and Danielle -














Tyler and Mark enjoy a funnel cake as they watch the fireworks.













The kids dug a hole in the sand to make a recliner so they would be more comfortable watching the fireworks. The things kids come up with, I tell ya!
