Our Fun Fourth

We had a whole bunch of things planned to do on the Fourth this year. We were going to go to the parade in the morning, meeting Lizzy and Kevy there becuase they ran the 5k that morning. Then we were going to come home and go to some friends a little later for water games for the kids and then have a fun dinner with a bunch of friends and then do some fireworks that night. Well Nellie woke up with a sore throat after throwing up the night before and not feeling good and I just had this deep down sick feeling that she had strep. So we met Kevy and Lizzy at the parade. It wasn't that great but the kids enjoyed it alright. I took Nellie to the instacare after that where the nurse confirmed my suspicion that it was indeed strep. So we got to stay quarantined from everyone. We tried to make it fun for our kids and we tried to have a little dinner and Kevy got some fireworks for us to do, but everyone was sick and grumpy and Lizzy came down with strep too. It ended up being such a crappy day. We didn't even end up doing fireworks that night becuase we just wanted everyone to get feeling better. Kevy did take a few of the kids to watch the city ones that night. The crappiest thing of all was that we thought we would save the ones we bought and do them the next night, and then we found out that the fourth was the last day we could legally light them! It was so disappointing. It defintely is a day I won't remeber fondly!

 

On the bright side I got to dress this cutie up in this darling outfit. To bad no one really got to see her.
