4th of July

I love the 4th of July!  For probably the last 10 years Chad & I have been going to the Harrisburg 4th of July parade and the two nights of fireworks.  For at least the last 5 years we've met our friends Becca & Jason and Paul & Kelly and watched the parade together.  Thankfully Jason is willing to get out really early (like 6am) to save a good spot for us.  The parade and festivities have really grown in Harrisburg over the past few years and if you don't get there early you won't have a good spot to watch the parade.  This year is was REALLY hot and humid, but we still had a great time - we just look really sweaty in most of the pictures!  Here are some pictures from our 4th of July fun:

We were able to spend a week at Wrightsville Beach in June.  The weather was absolutely perfect while we were there too - low to mid 80's and sunny.  Unfortunately since it was so nice Chad got REALLY sunburned our first day out at the beach!  So, he couldn't really go out on the beach in the mornings, but we would hang out or walk in the evenings so he still got to enjoy being there.  Because he's a great husband he didn't mind that I still went out on the beach most mornings to enjoy the great weather and swim in the ocean.  We really had a great time just relaxing for a week!  Here are some pictures from our trip:
