We made our annual trip across the river for fireworks.



These, "...shoot flaming balls."






Since we were already there, we visited the Bass Pro Shop. Dev enjoyed the fish and I tried to explain all the dead, stuffed animals.

As we were leaving, the rain started.


Ga-Ga made a 4th of July cake. We had an amazing dinner of Grandpa's brisket, green beans and slaw from our garden, mashed potatoes and cake!


The rain turned into a light drizzle and eventually stopped, just in time for a few fireworks.






Even with the rain, we had a great time watching Devin have a great time.
