July 4th really is my favorite holiday of the whole year!
Think about it... it's a great excuse for a bbq, there are always friends and family looking to celebrate, the cost is relatively low because there are no presents to be bought, it's summertime so the weather is usually great and you get to end the night with FIREWORKS! And most importantly, it's a day to think about the great country that we live in. We truly are the most blessed citizens in the world to claim America as our home even if we disagree with the way things are run sometimes. Go USA! :)
This year, Dave and I celebrated by going to Sheri's parents house for a carne asada bbq and swimming. Then we cleaned up and headed over to Matt and Becky's house in El Segundo to watch the city's firework show. At the last minute we climbed onto the roof of their apartment for the best view ever. We all agree that El Segundo puts on a great show that maybe even rivals Disneyland! (I'm still not sure if compares to the amazing street show put on at 1809 Cardigan Way, but who can even come close to the fireworks on the ladder technique?!) Thanks to Sheri & Tim for inviting us to the Walsh home and to Matt & Becky for hosting the fireworks show at their house and letting me take this picture of the rooftop viewing!
