Our 4th of July

We slept late and eventually ended up over at the Underwoods for a cook out. We were home by 9 b/c all the little ones started getting sleepy. We watched Thunder on the Mountain on TV... it was horrible. Who ever was in charge of picking the camera shots did a horrible job.... most of the time we were watching Vulcan standing on his throne (Vulcan is a statue in the city ... the fireworks are shot at his base). Then some camera guy liked to try and follow the fireworks from the launch zone up into the air.... it never worked but he kept trying! My dad was fussing the entire time which kept the rest of us laughing. He said he was going to call the TV station today to complain - LOL!
