4th of July Weekend

Kira had a good time celebrating the 4th of July over the weekend.  Jeff taught her how to chant U-S-A, even though it came out sounding more like, "Essay!"  On Saturday morning we went to a local 4th of July parade.  It was really hot but Kira managed to stay interested throughout the parade, especially with the aid of some snacks.






On Sunday we went to church and the pool during the day.  Then Kira went to Grandma and Papa's house for the night.  They went to a neighborhood BBQ and set off some fireworks.  Kira thought some of the fireworks were "noisy" but liked them for the most part.  Jeff and I headed to Arlington for a party at a friend's building where we watched the DC fireworks from their rooftop.
