July 4th

For Independence Day we went swimming, and then had a small bbq at home with our family...which started off a bit funny after we found a mouse hanging out in our bbq.

After we cleaned the bbq and ate dinner I told Amelia we were going to go hear music and dance. On our way out to get in the car Amelia stopped and said, "wait mom, I need my tutu." After heading back in to get the tutu we drove to a local park where there was going to be a concert. Key word...was. The concert ended just before pulled up. So, we headed to the cove where I thought another concert was going to happen...again, no music.


Amelia was so sad, and just wanted to dance, dance, dance. So, we found a little patch of grass and danced. There was no music and we were the only people dancing, but Amelia thought it was perfect. She could have danced for an hour.

Many people at the cove stopped to comment on her cute tutu and show us their own ballet moves.

On our way back to the car we caught a fireworks show, which Amelia loved.


What a great day!
