Fourth of July BBQ

It is a tradition in my family to have a neighborhood BBQ on the fourth of July. So, for the last 3 years we have continued that tradition in our own little neighborhood. We provide the burgers, hot dogs, drinks, and paper products and then everyone brings a side dish. We had about 30 people this year and we had tons of fun.

We set up the yard with kiddie pools, tents, balls, ect. and the kids pretty much entertained themselves while the adults were able to actually eat and visit.

After dinner we went to another neighbors house to set off fireworks we all bought and we gave the kids a bunch of glow sticks so we could keep tabs on them. Then we walked over to the ball field to watch the Stadium of Fire, which was pretty disappointing this year. We still had a great holiday together with our friends and look forward to doing it again next year.
