Red, Rhythm & Boom - 4th of July Celebration

The city of Mason had a really neat festival for the 4th of July. There were all sorts of military trucks, fire engines, and police cars there for the kids to climb in and look at. There was a man that jumped out of an airplane with a parachute, music, yummy food and great fireworks. We met the Manwarings there and the kids ran around and played together.
Drake loved to drive the big "army trucks." I couldn't help but think of Tanner & Dallin when they were little. They would have loved to see all of these trucks. I loved to see all the military service men and women there. My heart goes out to all those serving for our country. I have such deep gratitude for those that have made...and continue to make it possible for us to live in a free country

After the Red, Rhythm & Boom celebration we took Drake home and watched the fireworks in our neighborhood. We were amazed at how many professional fireworks we could see just sitting on our driveway. We counted 7 fireworks shows going on at one time in the sky. I am not sure what kinds of fireworks are illegal here....we sure saw a lot of really cool ones!
