We had a fun and pretty relaxed fourth of July. We went to fireworks in Wasilla at midnight to ring in Independence Day. I was surprised that Kyla was able to stay up so late to go, even Jon fell asleep and had to be woken up to go. She was so excited about them that she would not let herself go to sleep, so we just dressed her in pajamas and brushed her teeth before we went so that she could just fall asleep on the way home, and that is what she did. She really liked the fireworks and it was actually a pretty good show for how light it still is here at midnight. Unfortunately Kyla was pretty tired all day long on the 4th as a result of staying up for fireworks, so instead of heading to the parade and all the festivities in downtown we decided to just stay home. I worked in the garden for awhile putting up a trellis for the peas and getting rid of moss under the raspberries, Kyla played on her swingset and Jon barbecued us a good lunch. Afterwards we lit off fireworks in the backyard and sat by the fire and played games and roasted marshmallows.
