  • 4th of July Weekend in Missouri

    Thursday we went to Springfield.

    Friday we laid around and then shot off fireworks at Daniel's sister's house with neighbors

    Saturday we celebrated a good old-fashioned smalltown America 4th! It was in Squires, MO, home to 60 people. About a thousand come to celebrate our independence each year though!

    We took Trey on the merry go round and slides, ate hotdogs, and waited around for fireworks to start while listening to old time country-gospel music being sung! Then, we listed to Alan Jackson and other "modern" country songs being sung by this good-ol-boy!

    The fireworks display only lasted about 15 minutes but had some cool swirly firecrackers and other magnificent moments! All in all, a fun night that will probably never be repeated!

    Edit: My father in law just sent me this pic from last night of Trey catching a trout (while we were out running around with Daniel's cousins)
