The 4TH

July 4th, 2009: The 2nd annual drunken circle street party.
My kids have been waiting all year for this: the promise of being allowed to stay up LATE to watch FIREWORKS has been the driving factor. Last year we failed to let them stay up... we have been listening to them talk about it for a year!!

Our lovely neighbor, Christine, organized some activities and games for the kids. We had a swimming pool set up, a craft table...

and even an egg race!

This year we had a special guest appearance from our friends, Mark & Maggie... and their parents too ;)

No 4th of July celebration would be complete without roasting marshmallows to make smores!

In the end, a good time was had by all... Especially the Monkeys who, after much anticipation, finally got to see the fireworks!
