This year we decided to celebrate America's birthday over two days.
Day one of the celebrations started on Sunday:
 |
| Our sleepy little patriot |
It was a comfy 112 degrees outside, ideal weather for a BBQ and swim at The Fort. We got our swim on, we got our grub on, and we got rained on.

| My "mom" face |
 |
| Daddy getting crazy |
 |
| Auntie Fal and Uncle Cole |
 |
| Pop Pop and Grammy |
The fun was cut short when Fountain Thrills got hit with one of the nastiest monsoons of the season. Pop Pop was holding Lulu when the wind and rain picked up; he whirled around to form a grandpa shield, and then took off towards the cars. The rest of us grabbed the coolers and towels, and loaded the cars. Lordy, were we DRENCHED! Needless to say, fireworks were postponed.
Day two of the celebrations were much more low-key. Nothing says "Happy Birthday America" like sangria and a True Blood marathon!
