Our 4th of July

This post isn’t going on my other blog since we didn’t/couldn’t have a proper 4th of July in Texas since our county has banned fireworks! So we actually had to cross state lines in order to have a great 4th. At first we were worried that the rain wouldn’t stop. What is it with it always raining on the 4th of July? We were invited by James & Melissa to go with their family to Lake Lawtonka in Oklahoma, when we arrived it was a bit misty but not really raining, but once we unloaded everything it really started to rain. I was not dressed for the occasion! Silly me, I wore my bathing suit and only brought shorts and a t-shirt to change into, well it turned out to be cold rain, but thanks to Melissa’s dad we had a tarp to put up to block some of the rain and then some other people had gone to the Dollar General and bought shower curtains (yes, shower curtains) for the guys to put up and voila! The rain was blocked. Luckily the rain did come to an end and we had a great time shooting of tons (and I’m not exaggerating lol) of fireworks. Here’s just a few:
This reminded me of La Push :)


See the tarp and shower curtain?
