It ended with a bang
We had a great time at our annual 4th of July celebration in our court this past weekend–swimming, playing games, and eating a whole bunch of delicious food.
My daughter made and decorated the cupcakes…
and everyone had fun joining in the water balloon toss or doing things like face-painting, playing ping-pong, and squirting each other with water guns.
There were plenty of fireworks too.
One of our neighbors made a stand to set them on…
and after it got dark, he and another neighbor lit the fireworks and put on a great show for the whole court.
The night ended with a bang…
(And swimming until 12:00 am!)
The kids had a blast, and so did we. :)
Those are some awesome cupcakes. Your daughter did an awesome job. :)
It sounds like fun! Your daughter did a great job with the cupcakes!
You did such a great job of capturing the day. It looks like A LOT of fun!
Like the cupcakes… We went to the parade and then at night the kids used some low key fireworks.

Sounds like some of you are having problems with your comments showing up. If that's the case for you… so sorry! Not sure what's going on with Blogger or what the issue is. Hope to have it figured out soon. :)
Okay, I looked into the comment issue and found out it's a known issue for Blogger. They are working to resolve it and hopefully it will be fixed soon.I'm still getting your emails though (from your comments, even if they don't appear here), and some of the comments are still showing up, but if yours isn't, I apologize. :)
Sounds fun, and well done to your daughter, those cupcakes are adorable.I hope blogger sorts itself out soon, not being able to see if I've got new comments without opening each post is driving me mad.———————————–My photography is available for purchase – visit Around the Island Photography and bring home something beautiful today!
It sounds like a perfect day. I love those cupcakes!
I miss eating cupcakes! We 'celebrated' by going to a water park. Our daughter at first didn't want to go into the kiddie pool but after a while she loved it so much she didn't want to leave.
Those cupcakes look very pretty! :) Happy WW.
Those cupcakes are CUTE!We celebrated with a picnic at the in-law's and fireworks at night. It was the first time in YEARS that I have seen fireworks and I had a blast using my camera and seeing what I could come up with! :) You can see my pics at https://laurablogsagain.blogspot.com/2010/07/fireworks-go-boom-boom-boom.html

Your daughter did an excellent job with those cupcakes…so cute and fun! We enjoyed our 4th, had a bbq at my brothers.P.S. Sorry I haven't been doing well at commenting for awhile…I am reading though!
Wow! What fun! I miss the days of lighting our own fireworks. They are banned all over the place out here, so firework shows is where we go.
