See that shirt above? "Future President" - never know, might happen! 
Our mischievious monkey!
The 4th of July. A fun festivity smack dab in the middle of hot summer. For most of the years that we've lived in TN, the weather has been favorable and it has been clear skies and hot. This year, however, with 90% rain chance in the forecast, it was not looking favorable for a fireworks show.
Meemaw came up for the weekend and we all had dinner at Mimi and Grandpa's house. It was a good ole' Southern feast of bbq pulled pork, homemade potato salad, homemade slow cooked beans, corn on the cob, fresh fruit and a delicious blueberry pie. Now THAT's some good eatin'!
Then we started watching the storm forecast and debated on whether or not some of us would chance the weather and walk the :15 to the ballpark with Jack.
As we were still debating, we started hearing fireworks in the distance. They kept on and kept on and finally we realized that they had started the town fireworks show about :40 early in order to beat the rain! We scooped up the troops and headed outside where we stood on our friends' porch for the entire show.
The boys loved the fireworks. Tyler was mesmerized and didn't look away for the entire show. He was calling them "bop bops" by the end. It was really cute.
We had a good time and it was super convenient. We walked back across the street, loaded the car and headed home! Jack was pretty disappointed, however, that he has to wait AN ENTIRE YEAR before he can watch live fireworks up close. Sorry buddy!!!

What an awesome front porch- Ha!Ha! It's good to know that you could see them from there. We should have done the same & stayed home. It was crazy dodging in & out of the rain! Cute pix!
