Happy 4th of July!

Oftimes the weather here in Washington on July 4th is less than ideal - today however it is absolutely gorgeous.  It is about 74° and quite sunny:)  Last night (July 3) we went to some fireworks down at Bush Park off Yelm Hwy and it looked like the whole county showed up - it was a great show for 18 minutes and then most folks got caught in a big traffic jam - Marcie T played it great and started driving away just as the finale was blasting away and we made it home in 15 minutes - some ward members we talked with today took over an hour to get home!  Here are a few of the pictures we've taken - some last night with the clear moon and fireworks and a couple today at our ward breakfast/flag ceremony which was very nice.  We are very grateful for the freedom's we enjoy and for the men and women who protect those freedoms.
