Celebrating Freedom


We have a tradition of watching the City of Allen's firework show with the Garstka's.  Allen always celebrates a week in advance.  Usually, we have a big lunch at the Garstka's followed by swimming.  This year, Ally had a soccer games all day.  So, we spent the day at the lake with Abie and Stacey.  By the time we met up for fireworks, everyone was exhausted.  Jessica and Stacey opted out of the event.  The rest of us trudged on not wanting to break tradition.

The fireworks did not disappoint. They were magnificent.  It was very crowded.  I'm pretty sure that everyone in the town of Allen was in attendance.  And, as always, Jonathan fell asleep before the fireworks started.  He did wake up enough to enjoy the fireworks, though.
