July 4th

Yesterday we went to the fireworks that our town puts on. It was so much fun. Elinor loved watching all the people. When the fireworks started she was torn, she didn't know to watch the fireworks or the waves crashing. Today we are going to the pool for a little bit and then into the city to watch the fireworks again. It's pretty wild but I'm sure she will love it.

Here was her American outfit for yesterday..

thanks again Joe, Jessica and Joey for the pretty dress!

Here are a couple pictures taken with my phone from the fireworks lastnight

I hope everyone one has a happy and safe 4th!

July 4th

July 4th was super laid back for us. They were setting off fireworks right outside our house. We hung around the house for awhile, took a little walk and then went to the roof to watch. It was so hot out I'm glad that we could just come in and chill after walking around and getting some birch beer.

Me and a witch!

After our walk I started to make some cupcakes in the mini cupcake maker my mom got me. The original idea was to try and put vegan marshmallows in the middle. This is what happened...

At least it came off easy. Next plan was to put a marshmallow in the middle of 2 cupcake with PB frosting (that Dave made and frosted!) on top.

Then to the roof to get ready for the fireworks and dance to some music while we waited.

We could see the fireworks from different towns all around us too!
