4th of July

First off, can I just tell you how proud I am of myself for posting something the same month in which it occurred!!!  Yeah me.

Moving on.  For the 4th of July this year we went to the wonderful city of Buda, TX to check out a concert and some fireworks.  Some friends of ours are very good friends with one of the musicians performing so we go to hang out back stage.  The best of this for me was that there was a porta-potty with no line!!!  What pregnant woman wouldn't be excited about that!  Knowing that we wanted to stay until the fireworks, which were not for several hours, we brought lots of snacks and toys to entertain little miss. 

Chasing bubbles back stage.
Snack time.
Checkin' out the bands with daddy.
and more snacks...

We had some other friends meet up with us before the fireworks show.  They had all sorts of stuff going on at the park so we moved our "camp" to an area by the playground to yet again buy us more time while waiting for the fireworks.  We played at the playground and even went for a little train ride.  My very good friend of mine, Kori, was a trooper and rode this itty bitty train around the playground with us.  Thanks Kori!!  We had the boys take pictures but it was getting dark and well...they're no photographers.  Hailey's bedtime is 8:00...the fireworks were not scheduled to begin until 9:45!!!  She did pretty well while we waited.  I brought every light up toy she owned to try to tide her over.  She lasted about 2 minutes into the 10 minute show.  That's right, 10 minutes!!!!  We hung out all afternoon and evening in the heat and ended up sitting in traffic longer than we did watching fireworks.  Oh well, it was still a good time.  Not sure that we will do it again next year though.
