We celebrated the 4th of July this year by heading down by the river to the "Fort Worth Fourth Celebration". Payton had such a wonderful time! He loves to be outside anyway but out here there was so much to see and do. We laid out a blanket up at the top of the hill where we had a good view of all the action. Then we would take turns running down the hill to get more watermelon, refills, snacks or jump in the bounce house. It was his first official picnic. The only bummer was that the "big" fireworks would not start until the baseball game was over. We finally gave up and beat the traffic out of there at 10:30. We found out later that they didn't start until after midnight. Payton had a blast anyway and got to see some small "works" as he called them.
"cheeeeese"
Payton came back from one of his trips down the hill for ice cream that his dad had bought him a laser sword. "WOW!"
some of the smaller "works"
