Echo is still trying to get her mouth around Independence Day… so often it is America Day. And ours was on the relaxing side. We actually had a bit of a celebration the day before with the Schwartz family. Full on fun – a pool, bouncy house AND we made poutine.
Ken and I brought some Molson Canadian to further meld the two holidays together. And Renee had the kids make ice cream.
Of course we started with photos on the 4th.
Then… making of the snacks we were taking to our homeschool buds’ for dinner. (don’t forget making the kids clean while they waited for our leave time)
Our fun was on the relaxing side. Aimee had water balloons.
And then there was the mini firework type fun.
Throw in computers and toys and we rarely saw the kids.
We were done and dusted and in bed only a little after normal bedtime. PERFECT!
So a belated HAPPY INDEPENDENCE DAY to all who celebrated. Our day was a calm one, just how we like it!
