To celebrate, we woke up bright and early to enjoy a swim at Hueston Woods Lake, before the sun became blindingly hot. Cora inherited our ghostly white complexions, so we slathered on the SPF 1 billion and tried to stay under an umbrella.
Continuing the celebration at home, daddy made a delicious and 'cruelty free' feast of shish kabobs, corn, and asparagus. Yum! Meanwhile, Cora wore her most patriotic outfit, which ironically is a blue and white Parisian sailor suit from Uncles Andy and Brian. We ended the evening with a festive Sparkler Show in the backyard, since Cora's bedtime rules out the nighttime fireworks.
Don't ask me why I seem to be taunting Cora in this video... honestly, I'm a very loving mom most of the time :)
Sparklers!
