We had a GREAT 4th of July!!! We had dinner with the family at the pond house as usual and then headed to Mill Creek for the fireworks! Athan had so much fun playing and running around before the show began. Matt and I were a little worried if the fireworks would be too loud for him, but our child was not scared a bit!!! He was mesmerized!!! Athan was so tired after the show that we danced until it was time to go! Matt and I had the most fun watching Athan explore, grow, and play!!! Also, I did try to explain to him why we celebrate July 4th. I know he is too young to understand but....

We had a GREAT time at Hilton Head this year! The resort was so peaceful and Athan was so well-behaved the entire time. He likes the beach a little better than the pool! What can I say boys love to play in the dirt!!! Matt and I had such a good time watching him explore and discover. No Athan does not have a tan. I don't think little kids should; sun damage begins so early! I am "that" kind of mom! :-) Can't wait to go back!!!
