We had a great holiday weekend- er- weekday- er- whatever it was this year! On the third, we celebrated with some long lost friends watching the Midlothian Fireworks. This was Preston's first official time to EVER see fireworks. In previous years, I didn't want to risk keeping him up that late for something I didn't think he would fully understand anyway. This year, HE LOVED LOVED LOVED them. He would say, oh wow, awesome, amazing. AND it was a full moon so he was mesmerized by that. He asked about a million times..."Mom, see moon? Moon see fireworks?"
On the 4th, we headed to the in laws to celebrate with burgers, hot dogs, and a nice cool pool! The kids (and adults loved it). Preston, however, became WAY too brave. He thinks he can do it all by himself. but even with the floaties, he not a strong swimmer. I was a nervous wreck the whole time. Preston + pool = stress. I'm hoping that was ease as he gets older, but right now, I'm a hot mess when he is in a deep pool. He had a great time though:)
The one above and below are my absolute favorite pictures of the holiday!
Happy Fourth... Love, the Emerson Kiddos!
