Celebration Time

The celebration begins!
Our fourth of July celebrating begins tonight
with a concert in the park,
followed by fireworks.
In the morning we'll watch our
hometown parade
.
Who doesn't love a parade?
Every year we come home with a sack of candy, mostly saltwater taffy, that's been thrown to us by the people in the parade. Afterwards, everyone will enjoy an old fashioned carnival in the park.
Then we'll go home to relax and enjoy a
family barbecue in the backyard.At dusk, we'll go to a near-by town to watch
more fireworks
.

I LOVE fireworks! My best memories of summer celebrations
are of our family
ooooohhing and aaahhhhing over fireworks.
How will you make
summer celebration memories
this weekend?

  3. I remember going to Richfield as a child to watch fireworks, and always they ended with a firework display made like the American Flag. We would sit on a blanket and oooohh and aaaahhh..... I do love home town parades, and a sack...meaning a plastic grocery one full of taffy...right? Is what we get at our parade too! Your post was like memory lane for me today! Happy Fourth♥
