Fourth Of July Adventures 2009.....

The kids and I had a pretty good Fourth of July Weekend. Rather low key. On Saturday morning, I took them to Piedmont Park to watch some of the Peachtree Road Race. Really we just stood at finish line for a bit and watched the last of the runners come in... Then we met some friends who had run in the race and hung out for a little while. That afternoon, the kids played in the backyard while I did some yard work, then we went for a little swim.

In the evening, I took the kids to downtown Decatur to have inner and watch the fireworks. They had a good time!! They played in the steam fountain for a while after dinner, and we watched the ban play for a bit. Towards dusk, we headed up to our spot on the parking deck. It has a good, unobstructed view of the fireworks. D and Little A made friends with another little boy--- they all chased the football around for a while. The little boy's mother gave them all sparklers!
