Happy Fourth of July!

Right in the middle of the week, right? Just a strange feeling for those of us who didn't get to take the rest of the week off. :)

Here's how our patriotic American birthday went:

We made some festive treats, including white chocolate dipped strawberries with blue sugar tips...



And also, patriotic cake pops - red candy dipped, blue sugar tops and white star sprinkles...



We took these to a family friend's potluck on the water, where we ate, drank, rode on the boat and lit off fireworks.

See the red, white and blue cake slice Addie's eating? Happy birthday to her Papa Rod, too!



Just like last year, we went on a little boat ride.



Addie was super excited with Auntie Sarah.



Here she is, telling Papa what's going on. In fact, she saw a fish before he did.




Then, Auntie Sarah, Kenzie and Addison went on the paddleboat.



I even played with the exposure time on my camera capturing the movement of the sparklers.





We had a blast as usual. Good food, good friends and good family. Not much more a girl could ask for.
