happy birthday america!!!!

today we celebrated our nation's birthday by hanging out with friends and family

we began the day by watching all of our baby birds (there are 3 nests and about 15 million babies on and around our house:-) this little guy had "flown the coop" a bit too early and can't seem to get himself back up into the nest - but his mama is still feeding him so I think he's going to be okay - look - he's still "fuzzy"

then we ran errands and ended up at Rosa's for lunch - nothing like cheap tacos to make a girl happy:-)

back at home we hung out in the back yard...


and played with the dogs...


then it was time for dinner - we made chicken and rice in the dutch oven - yummy!

my chefs...

and then it was time for FIREWORKS at the...
every year we go to the sonic parking lot and hang out in our lawn chairs until the show begins - we've been doing this for years and we talk it up every year so -
look who we ran into this year!!!:-)



the fireworks were great and all but i really enjoyed just hanging out afterwards on the sidewalk waiting for all the traffic to disperse -
and of course you know mr.crim had to "do-it-up"!!!

all said and done we had a great 4th!
happy birthday america!!!!
