We spent 4th of July weekend at Grandma & Grandpa's; most of the time was spent relaxing along the lakefront at our good family friends' house. Alice had so much fun playing in the water, bouncing on inner tubes, reading bad pulp fiction, and helping spread sunscreen all over everyone, that she skipped her usual afternoon nap and then ended up sleeping right through the fireworks! We were actually really disappointed, because we'd bought special earmuffs for her, just like Drew Brees got for his kid for the SuperBowl. Alice does seem to enjoy wearing her earmuffs around the house, though! Maybe it's because then she can pretend that she doesn't hear Daddy say, "No!" when she grabs the tv remote.
We need a picture of Alice with her earmuffs!! She'll probably appreciate them next year for fireworks, too.
