I know, I'm a little late on the July 4th post! We went to Red, White, & Boom in downtown Columbus for our July 4th celebration this year. To say the least...it was not worth it. Not that we didn't have fun just being with friends...and not that my daughter was feisty, she was actually a complete peach, even for the 2 hour drive to get downtown (aaand, my house is normally a 15-20 minute drive from downtown!)...but it just wasn't worth the hours of sitting in the car waiting to move a few inches. We were elbow-to-elbow with 18 million people and the lines to get food were UNBELIEVABLY long...which is not cool when a girl is hungry! Needless to say...we won't bother with this again...UNLESS (!) we plan to make an entire day of it...tailgate style...complete with cornhole. ;) On the upside, Ava LOVED the fireworks! She hung out with Kurtis through it all! Which is saying a lot...because she has turned into a fussy butt when it comes to men...she thinks they're smelly...and have cooties...and sometimes have weird hair growing on their faces.... ;o)
Look at that cutie pie...
Her unexpected buddy for the evening...she had him wrapped tightly around her little pinky. ;o)
Waiting patiently for some fireworks... :)
The girlies...
The dudes...I love this shot...they're so excited to run the camera! Can't you tell?!
So this is Katie. Ava and Katie have met about 3 times...on this night, at this particular moment, one would have thought they've been lifelong buddies. Ava practically jumped into Katie's arms when she bent down to say hello, and then she just snuggled right into Katie's hug. It was pretty sweet. :o) Ava must find Katie's body nice and snuggly!
See...still snuggling. :o)
Happy July 4th!!!
