Kaboom!

It was a double celebration during the Fourth of July Holiday. We enjoyed Lakeland's Annual Red, White & Kaboom fireworks on the 3rd and then *BAM*, Gammey came over the following day to complete a fantastic celebration of America's Independance! 

We headed downtown Wednesday night to and met up with the Hawxwell Family. This was Skyler's 5th time enjoying America's birthday. 

The Princess was super excited to spend the event with her bestie, Reesey! The two paled around listening to live mucic before the spectacular show began. 

 The first blast was right on time...9PM!

 The breathtaking firework display definitely dazzled our family!

It was so beautiful watching it over the lake. By 9:30, we headed home with one tired little girl. 

The following morning, Gammey came to spend three days with us! Sky waited patiently by the living room window until her blue car rolled into the driveway. It was all hands on.

Gammey bought Skyler two beautiful dresses from her trip to Tennessee and even brought back a jumbo coloring book. Sky just adores arts & crafts.

We enjoyed a wonderful cookout of ribs and all the fix'ins. Total Yum! daddy had been marinating 4 slabs since Sunday and boy were they delicious. After dinner, we enjoyed our own private firework show right in the back yard.

 Happy 4th!

 What's a 4th of July celebration without the traditional sparklers!

We continued celebrating Friday night, as Gammey & Skyler had a girl night while Daddy and I celebrated our 5th wedding anniversary at the Columbia Restaurant in Celebration.

What a joyous three days! I hope your 4th was filled with plenty of festivities, good food and family!
