4th of July Weekend Pt. 2!

For the 4th of July, we headed out to Palmer Lake with the Jeremy and Carrie Isaac Clan and a few of their friends. Palmer Lake does an amazing fireworks show every year and it's nestled back in a beautiful location near the mountains. The weather probably couldn't have been worse, but we had a wonderful time anyway! My philosophy towards unkind weather is: life happens, so don't get upset at the rain...dance in it! :-)

Grill Masters! It was very windy because of the storm moving in, so it took a few tries to get the grill to light.

There were coal trains that came through about every hour. Poor Braxton was so scared of the horn!

The looming storm clouds

Me and my baby! I've never worn long sleeves on the 4th of July before.

They were sharing cookies! This should be on a Valentines Day card. :-)

Our 4th of July Feast!

Then it started sprinkling

Then it started pouring!

Justin braving the cold rain to guard our spots in the parking lot!

Then it started dumping...and hailing! (and before anyone freaks out about Braxton being in the front seat, the car was off and the emergency brakes were on!)

We waited out the storm 2 hours, and finally got to watch the fireworks in the rain. It was beautiful to watch the lightening and the fireworks at the same time! I will never forget that fireworks show!
