Family Fourth Of July

We have a bit of a family tradition of getting together in Ripon, Ca. for 4th of July for BBQ and fireworks. This year was no different.  As usual, we made a stop along the way at Bravo Farms.

Once in Ripon, we went on our Quest for Fireworks.  The kids really like the smoke balls.  They are fun since you can light them during the day.

There was plenty of "down time" so we brought bicycles and scooters.

We didn't have a pool so we pulled a boat off the trailer and put a sprinkler in it.  It filled with water and became a swimming pool. 

Brandon was intent on getting the largest box of fireworks they had called the "Big Deluxe".

Of course, while in the area, we had to visit Bass Pro shops. 

The highlight is the evening fireworks display.  We light them off out in front of the house and everyone watches.
