Tonight we are going to watch fireworks on the Lake. It’s a free show by the amusement park. All we have to do is drive over to the dam and park on the lakeshore, sit in the front seat – or let the tailgate down and sit on that.

Tomorrow the City is doing a free fireworks show down on the riverfront. They have the symphony play patriotic songs during the show, which is a nice touch.

So we get two nights of fireworks shows this year! Hope you have a safe and happy Fourth of July, too.

If you are a mother, I hope you have a wonderful Mother’s Day. If you are fortunate enough to still have your mother with you, I hope you are able to spend the day with her and give thanks for all she has done for you.

We are looking forward to a house full of people later this afternoon. I’ve been busy cleaning up and getting ready to cook dinner for a crowd. It is very different preparing a feast from just cooking a regular quick dinner for one or two people. I’ve had to move things off the counter to make room for all the mixing bowls, pans and what not that I’ll be using.

I hope everyone has a nice time today and that your Easter is nice, as well. If you have little ones in your house, I hope the Easter Bunny finds you and leaves lots of Easter eggs and candies for you to enjoy.
