What's More American?

Because it was the fourth of July I had that silly little song in my head "...what's more American than baseball, the fourth of July, and Uncle Sam..." all day long! So in honor of that silly little song, here is our 4th of July celebration.
What's more American than Strawberry shortcake? We ate this for breakfast, lunch, and dessert. And I actually felt okay about it because it was festive...ya know...red and white.

What's more American than having a BBQ? Dan's company owns some of the buildings downtown where the big celebration is held. One of the perks, I guess, for working for them is getting free food, parking, and admission. It was fun and free!

What's more American than watching fireworks with Dad? Camden was in ahh with all the noise and bright lights. I was actually really surprised with how well he did, considering the show didn't even start until it was already 2 hours past his normal bedtime.

By the time the show was over, Camden was all tuckered out. We stripped him down because he was so hot, and let him fall asleep on the ride home. All in all it was a fun night and we were ready to hit the hay when we got home.

I can't believe we still haven't seen Camden- he is so big now! It seemed like we saw you guys quite often before he was born but now we never see you. He is so cute in your pictures but I a sure it is ten times better in person.
