Happy 4th of July!
We were kind-of stressed/excited/overwhelmed this year on the 4th because Brandon was coming home the next day! We didn't really plan anything spectacular, but when the sun went down, we decided to drive to the East side and see if we could see any fireworks from around the valley. And guess what? We did! (These pictures are terrible, by the way, but the fireworks were awesome...just so you know!)
We couldn't believe how busy it was on the East side. Apparently everyone else had the same idea as we did. Cars were parked on the main streets (both sides) and people were walking to nearby parks and church parking lots, so they could hopefully escape before the rest of the millions of people after the fireworks ended. Guess where we ended up?
We turned off the main road and parked in a nearby cemetery! I was a little freaked out at first. It was dark and quiet (and empty!) except for all the tombstones surrounding us! It turned out to be a good place though because the fireworks were awesome and we could see them quite well!
So, yeah, the pictures didn't do justice, but it was fun anyway!
Happy Independence Day!
