Independence day Pictures

Maisie was still trying to get over being ill (she had a HIGH fever for 4 days, and is now congested), so we didn't do as many activities as we'd planned for Independence Day. We colored the flag, talked about the number of stars, and the original 13 colonies.

We did make our firecracker hats. Next year we'll make tricorn hats--I didn't but enough craft foam to make them.

We went to a local display for fireworks. We sat in a Target parking lot and had a great view. Dani, who was afraid of them last year, LOVED them, and Katie (19 months old), who I thought FOR CERTAIN would be afraid, just pointed and giggled and jumped up and down. It's amazing how the third child can be so fearless.
