Happy 4th of July everyone!
These are Addie's awesome parents Aubrey and Cole...
After our indoor picnic, many of us trudged our way through the rain over to the East Side to watch the fireworks.

While waiting, I discovered this nifty little feature: my camera can record video! Who knew?
So you get to see 3 minutes of the fireworks over the East River...
Happy Birthday America. We're glad you were born.
