Mower's: Fourth of July Celebration

I love the Fourth of July, it's one of my favorite holidays! We have the tradition of going to my parents for breakfast, and then watching the Layton Parade. The kids then walked down to the Layton park where they have some booths set up with toys, clothes, sun glasses ect.... The Kids had been doing chores around the house so they could earn some money to buy a toy at the fair. The boy's bought swords that light up, and make sounds, Kate did a edible sand art craft. Then we went home and ate pizza, and let Jence, Ben, Mom and Dad take a nap. The two older kids watched a movie. Afterwards we went to the pool to swim. Then we finished off the day watching the fireworks. It was cute to watch Benjamin's reaction to the fireworks. Past years he's always slept through them. His eye's were so wide. He said "wow, there as big as the planet". Other cute things he would say was "Mommy these last so long". It was a really long display, and the grand finale was very impressive. I'd have to say it was one of the best fire works displays I've seen. They did a really fantastic job. It was a great day, and we all had a lot of fun. Happy Fourth of July everybody. We just celebrated our 237th year as a nation. Current national debt is $16,745,392,197.44 which makes us the leader in percentage of world debt. Makes you proud to be an American doesn't it! We've been a nation for over two hundred years, and it only took two president's to make us the most debt ridden country in the world. Wow, do I feel bad for our four kids. The load of debt they will be burdened with because of our reckless spending in Washington is shameful. Thanks for nothing you idiot politicians, just keep right on printing money, maybe we will magically just spend our way out of debt. With so much paper being printing in Washington maybe we should invest in lumber the price should go sky high.
