The day BEFORE the fourth of July we just had a lazy morning at home. After Brynn's nap we headed to Oran to visit with my grandparents. My grandma was making some pillows and curtains for my sister's new apartment, so we tagged along and had dinner and played.

| Our Fourth of July "pinterest" dessert...white chocolate covered strawberries with blue sugar sprinkles! |
 |
| She took off everything and just wanted the strawberry. She actually "helped" me make these...our kitchen was a wreck afterward! HA! They were super easy to make, but with a 15 month old grabbing the spatula of white chocolate and spreading it on herself we made a big mess! But we had LOTS of fun! |
 |
| I think Pawpaw is just a bit smitten with little girl! |
 |
| Look at this face...she has been doing this all the time lately...crack me up! She was trying to blow his nose! HA! |
 |
| Pawpaw got out a special "bubble gun" for Brynn! She is really into bubbles right now and loves to say "bub uh"! |
 |
| Her hair gets so curly when it's hot and humid! |
 |
| Time for some fireworks!
My grandparents neighbors always put on a big show. We decided to keep Brynn up later than normal to watch. BAD IDEA...she's normally in bed by 8:30 or 8:45 so we figured if they started around 9 we'd let her watch 15 minutes or so and it would be fine. Well...they didn't start until 9:30, but every minute I kept thinking "they will start any second, we can't leave now. Otherwise we've waited for nothing." And she was doing fine...well they finally started and Brynn liked watching the smaller ones, but the loud ones scared her a little. We watched for like 10 minutes and left around 9:45. She fell asleep immediately on the drive home, but when we got home she woke up and I think she was so overtired or scared from the noises that she couldn't get to sleep. It was pretty rough...then she woke up again around 4:30, but thankfully put herself back to sleep on her own. Whew! Oh well...she'll always remember those beautiful fireworks she saw when she was one, right? HA! I figure sometimes you just gotta make the memories and enjoy it, and just pay for it in the middle of the night. =)
