America's Birthday 2015

One of my favorite holidays happens to be July 4th.  Maybe because it's summertime or maybe because fireworks are just amazing or maybe because you eat lots yummy grilled food or maybe because it signifies the beginning of my birthday month, but regardless it's tops.  We had a great weekend celebrating.  Ezra's first experience with fireworks was too cute for words.  He was mesmerized, not taking his eyes off of them.  Then, out of nowhere he started applauding (his newest trick) on his own during the show.  We had a blast celebrating with family + friends.  It's kinda bittersweet as life gets back to normal + the partying is over.  Here are some family pics we took in front of our gigantic flag that Matt hung in front of our house for the second year in a row. :)
