I love the 4th of July!

I love the 4^th of July! Every aspect of it – summertime, watching fireworks, spending time with family, playing at the lake, eating delicious food and taking part in fun games; not to mention, we get a 3 day weekend!

Every year, the town of McCaysville, GA sets off fireworks…we of course never miss it!  This year the fireworks were on Friday night so as soon as we got in to town, we staked out a spot where we wanted to watch the show.  As always, the fireworks were spectacular!

Saturday morning we woke up early and headed to Lake Bear Paw in NC. This is one of our favorite lakes because it's very peaceful and is surrounded by beautiful mountains. We spent the day riding around on the pontoon boat, swimming in the water and tubing. Needless to say, we were exhausted when we got home that night.  

On Sunday, we spent the day playing in the creek and enjoying a game of Bocce Ball. Later that night, we set off our own fireworks while patriotic music played in the background. As with all of the 4^th of July's in the past, this was one to remember!

Bocce Ball Champs! Unfortunately, I was not apart of that team :(

Sparklers!

Lighting some fireworks!
