4th of July

We had a great 4th of July, especially since Samantha was old enough this year to be aware of the fireworks and everything else that goes along with July 4th!  We went over to my parents for their annual BBQ and had a great time visiting with family and friends.  Samantha, of course, dressed up for the occasion.

She got excited for the fireworks but that lasted for about 2 minutes then she wanted to chat up anyone and everyone around us.  Thank goodness for friendly neighbors!
