4th of July!

We had a low key 4th of July celebration. Since the holiday fell in the middle of the week and on a school/work night, it was not really ideal to go somewhere far. Plus, Elle cannot really stay up late to watch the fireworks. Nevertheless, we enjoyed staying home and having our own backyard barbeque.
Happy 4th!


Oh, Daddy Jarbs did her hair :)


 There weren't only two but THREE pigtails!

On our morning walk to Uncle Chips to get her oatmeal raisin cookie. We walked by a fireworks stand and the guy selling them gave her free sparklers just because she looked cute in her 4th of July ensemble :).


Since Daddy Jarbs is vegetarian and I am not really a huge fan of burgers and hotdogs, our backyard barbeque consisted of grilled corn and grilled lobster tails :). Yum!


Later in the day, Elle cooled off in her pool



Sparklers!

Towards the end of the day, Elle grabbed my hand and said "inside, inside". I did not realize it was already past 8 pm. It was already her bedtime so she wanted to go back inside the house. Elle did not see any fireworks but she did hear some "bang bang" earlier in the day. She would say "Nana see bang bang" which meant she wanted to go outside to see where the sound of the firecrackers were coming from :).
