For us the Fourth of July is a day for the family to get together. I fire up the grill in the afternoon, while the kids and Grandma Wanda play in the pool. In the evening we kick back with a beer and make a roaring bonfire in the fire pit. Maybe we roast a hot dog or two and some marshmallows. Then when it get good and dark we light little fireworks for the kids. This photo kind of sums it all up.
