So, I had planned to share what we did for our Independence Day extravaganza! As luck would have it, Nate accidentally brought the camera whose shutter died last week (dreaded Err #30!), so we have no photo evidence of our magical evening. I secretly loved the freedom from documentation; it kind of made the holiday a little more special.

Our buddies Lorie and Jon arranged for all of us to watch Nashville’s fireworks from the rooftop of Jon’s work building- It was amazing! I know we don’t have photos from it, but Nathan and I pretty much looked like this:

The evening ended with the four of us blowing stuff up for a couple hours. My Mom never let us shoot off fireworks as a kid, so launching our very own is completely new, fascinating, and terrifying to me! I spent most of the evening hiding completely behind Nathan and peeking over his shoulder to watch 90% of the time. Anyway, I’m happy to report all four of us walked away with our fingers and toes in tact. :)

I hope you all had a safe and happy holiday!
