i think 4th of july is my second favorite holiday. {christmas of course is my 1st} i think i have loved it all of my life. i am a total summer person, and it is such a family oriented holiday with warm and fuzzy memories. we were in carlsbad again this year carrying on the farnsworth family tradition and stayed for a week. the weather was beautiful and perfect, and our resort was even more perfect. so many times while we were there i kept thinking it felt like we were in hawaii. on the 4th we started the day with swimming all day. then we met up with family friends for a bbq outside in the large grass area, and played a little sports while we were out there. then we went back to the pool area for games, smores, and then fireworks. we put beckham to bed and kept our phones as monitors so we could thoroughly enjoy the evening, and may i say, it was a good decision to put him to bed! berkeley loved the whole day. the kids got glow sticks and she thought that it was perhaps the most clever thing ever. when the fireworks came she absolutely loved those as well. she had to make sure and sit with different people during the show so she could enjoy it with everyone. like always it was such a fun 4th.....that's why its my favorite.
