4th of July 2007

Another summer, another 4th of July! This 4th of July we sort of carried on a tradition. For the last few years, my brothers & Jim have joined Baha and I for the fireworks. This year the bros came down earlier with mom and Tonia (our new family addition) and we had 4th of July grub. The usual fair, hot dogs, hamburgers, potatoe salad, macaroni salad, chips, beers..and Andy delighted our taste buds with a fruit salsa with homeade tortilla chips....mmmm yummy!

Jim Almost bailed on us, but fortunately he changed his mind, missed the food, but made it for the fireworks. It wasn't the best weather for the fireworks, but it could have been worse.

Yes is was rainy and windy, but not pouring. We all had umbrellas and the fireworks still looked awesome!

This was Tonia's first year at the Boston Fireworks, best in the country! She was chilly, but new big bro Greg was a gentleman and shared his sweatshirt. Aaahhh.

Rain or shine, Baha has his tripod and is ready for some firework action! His is the umbrella in all my firework photos.

How is it that you guys are the only ones capable of making me not look like a fat old retard in photographs? I do look rather soggy, though.

It was indeed a fun evening. I preferred the cool weather to the sweltering, could have done without the rain though!
