Happy Birthday, America!

Hannah celebrated her first Fourth of July with rain. Bummer! We had planned on going down to St. Louis to watch the annual VP Parade with my mom and dad, but the rainy day kept us away. Instead, we headed to the mall for a Macy's one-day sale. Later that evening, our neighbors John and Kelli (who are due with the first little one any day now) came over for dinner and fireworks. However, the rain shut down all of Mascoutah's festivities. So we did eat dinner and hang out but had to wait until Sunday evening to watch the fireworks. They were not too exciting for Hannah because she was already in bed. But she did prove to us that she sure does love to sleep -- she didn't make a peep even with the fireworks going off right outside her window! I hope next year she will enjoy the traditions that make this holiday fun!
