Friday: This is the 4th of July "parade" at Leisure Village. People who have golf carts decorate them for the holiday; and others decorate their cars or electric wheel chairs, etc. It's actually pretty cool with everyone waving flags, etc.
I almost missed taking these TWO photographs! The parade was over and done quite quickly, as there were only about a dozen participants this year.
But later in the evening, I asked if I could visit over at Diana's house to see the kiddos shoot off fireworks. Diana buys a ton of fireworks that the kids really enjoy lighting up. Kaity's two friends, Ayden and Royce, were invited as well. They had a great time.
And it was so wonderful to see Emma and Kota too! I rarely get to see them! Kota's mom, Tiffany, and his sister (who has such an unusual name that I cannot remember it!) were also there; as well as Diana's mom and dad.
I like these photos of Emma and Kota, especially this one:
Larry and Judy ...
Since our June here in Michigan stays light SO LONG, the real firework blasting off couldn't really begin until about 9:30 ... these are just preliminary ones the boys were doing.
Emma and Kota just got "home" from tubing--look at how sunburned Emma is! OUCH. She is well aware how to take care of this, though. She told me she has plenty of nice creams to put on it.
I think this one is my favorite picture (below) ...
Jesse was with us too--I don't think he shows up in any of these photos, however. Emma asked him how to set up her camera for night/fireworks shots and he was (as usual) super helpful in doing that.
Here are the few photos I took with my phone ... not too bad for someone who doesn't know a blame thing about shooting at night ...
It was nice to be with family tonight. I love my family. Thank you so much, Lord, for all of them.
