Our 4th of July

Happy Independence Day!On the 3rd, we went to fireworks in Eveleth. It ended when the hill that they are shot off of, started on fire. A real grand finale :)



On the 4th, I brought my nephew Tristan to the parade. His mother and father were both working. He is on the right. He met up with his friend and they were dancing together in the street.

I am so impressed by the marching bands. It is a lot of coordination to turn the corner.
Then, to summer services in Cokato. There were a lot of people there. Many people were pulling out their cell phones to text their family and/or friends to see where they were sitting. The overflow areas were full, people in every hallway, everywhere.... people, people, and more people!!!! It was fun!

Services were air conditioned. They rented extra ac units as if we just used the schools, they wouldn't keep up. It was quite nice inside. Some people were cold and put on sweaters :)

Can't wait to see pictures of the trip to San Diego.
