Erik and Rach :)

What great friends!! To fill out my photography website with beautiful people, they posed like models for a full evening, (which they have very few of). How beautiful are they?

Happy Birthday, USA!!!

Happy Birthday, America!!!

Above...how LJ feels about fireworks. So, we went out before dusk and had our own "celebration". He wasn't even crazy about holding an unlit sparkler. (as you can see). Can you imagine a HUGE 4th of July fireworks show? I think not. Not yet, at least.

But he did love singing "Happy Birthday" to America... at the top of his lungs. Have you seen that much feeling ever when someone sang the national anthem, let alone a simple "Happy Birthday"? He was so loud, the neighbors came out to investigate.

...while I held Her Birthday candle. See him still dancing and singing in the background?

He may have a problem with fireworks, but he does not have a problem with those little things you throw that pop. He calls them "poppers". He went through an entire box. In less than 3 minutes.

While the fireworks were going, most people were poised, watching. We, on the other hand, had the blinds closed and the iPod playing full blast to drown it out. Who needs fireworks when you've got...

This?? Not us! We decorated brownies as the American flag while we danced around the house to the iPod. He would hear a firework every now and then and say, "Yeah, that's how you do it, fireworks!" He was fine with them, as long as we were inside, together, with music blaring, holding fruit and brownies. Maybe not a "normal" 4th, but it was special, nevertheless.
