This year we had a BBQ in our backyard and lots of fireworks. We invited Leif's mom and sisters and we have a great time. Even when our backyard had great shade it was still a very hot and humid evening, but we decided just to stay outside and brave the heat. Our neighborhood had tons of fireworks going and David and Matt took care of ours. We had a scary experience with a firework that tipped over and tried to attack us all...lol..afterward we were all laughing, but seriously it was pretty scary. We made delicious cupcakes with cream cheese and chocolate chips in the middle, a recipe from Paula Dean..to die for...
