It is Monday July the 4th and although I don't have any big exciting plans, I do have one primary goal to try and keep my girls calm with all the loud booms, crackles, and screeches!
With summer school over I'd spent the weekend getting my house and kitchen put back together and by Monday afternoon I guess I was glutton. I decided to use some of the leftover
cake mix and white chocolate from our cakeball baking day in summer school to create a more patriotic version. Baking occupied my afternoon and kept my girls fascinated waiting for me to drop something tasty for them to snatch up!
By the evening we'd settled in for a movie in attempt to drowned out the fireworks to keep the girls calm. Once it was fully dark the fireworks were in the full force, the girls wouldn't quit barking or
running back and forth showing their confusion and panic. I gave up on the movie idea and went outside into the backyard with them instead in hopes of helping them stay calm while getting to
enjoy the free show! I of-course took my camera with me to see if I could capture any of the overhead illegal bursts of color. I live on the outskirts of the city and it seemed like I was surrounded
by such fireworks and these were not simple bottle rockets, they were the next best thing to the real deal!!! Enjoy my humble attempt at capturing their beauty!
