A birthday with fireworks

We celebrated Sophie's classmate Francis' fifth birthday today at the pier.  Though the party didn't start until 2, we arrived a little earlier to hit some rides, since the wristbands were good for the entire day.  The kids split up several times over the course of three hours, but no one seemed too upset about it.  Thank goodness for the early clouds or it would have been an even hotter day!

After we walked home from the pier, we hopped into the car and headed over to Danielle's place for an early Fourth of July barbeque and to watch the fireworks at the college, which is only a block away from her house.  Even though we were all exhausted from the afternoon of festivities, the kids still had enough energy to run around.  We couldn't hear the music for the fireworks, but the view wasn't too bad except a power line.  A fun, patriotic and exhausting day!
