Happy Birthday, America!

Yea, I know. I'm 4 days late; 5 by now. I've been very busy. I had a great birthday on the 3rd and then Hubby and I went to a great 4th of July party! It was the first time we'd be out on the 4th in awhile. The last time I remember going to a Fourth of July party was when I still lived in my apartment so that was at least 5 years ago, but I'm thinking it was probably 2003. I got a horrible migraine that night and one of Hubby's friends had to tell him he should take me home because I looked so miserable. I really wanted to stay and endure it, but the headache just wouldn't go away. Since then, we've always just stayed in.

This year we went to a party out in the country. I had wanted to go see some fireworks somewhere, but Hubby didn't wanna deal with parking and walking and crowds. So we went to a party that his friend was having. It turned out to be a great decision! They had purchased their own display of fireworks! They bought the biggest possible without a license. I would have to say it was the most impressive back yard display I've ever seen! As an added bonus, since we were in the country, and it was flat we could see all kinds of other displays in the area! We saw everything from other homemade displays to small towns and cities! It was a very cool Fourth! Hope everyone else had a great holiday, too! :)
