Happy Fourth!

Ben had Friday off, so we we decided go out for an early breakfast.  After breakfast, we walked down to Gasworks Park where the fireworks can be seen from all over Seattle on the 4th.  They had already started setting up for the festivities and lady liberty's head was all blown up, fenced and guarded by a very cute and definitely older security guard.
Below is a photo of the barge where they shoot the fireworks from.

... later we met friends at the wading pool.  Perfect for a hot day!




On the 4th, we went to the beach.  And it was actually HOT at the shore!
note: we aren't barefoot...  the sand was WAY too hot
.... in the eve, we barbecued with friends who put on their own fireworks show.

... and finally, we were home just in time to watch the fireworks off our own balcony!!!
(and through our tree)
Hope your 4th celebrations were great!
