4th of July in AZ was unusually cool, which I don't think anyone minded at all. It was actually raining in the morning and cleared out by the afternoon, the rest of the day was nice and mild. I think the high that day was only 85 or something. We live next door to the Cincinnati Reds/Cleveland Indians spring training park and the City sets off fire works there each year so we had a good view of the fireworks from the neighborhood. This was the first time Sabrina had seen fireworks and she liked them a lot. She wasn't scared either. She just calmly watched and oohed and awwed.
As the week has continued since the 4th, the weather has warmed up again to 110+ so today we took Sabrina to a park nearby where they have a "Splash Pad" where kids can play in fountains and other water activities. This was the second time we have taken her and she had a blast! There were plenty of other kids there so I had to make sure to keep up close behind her to make sure she didn't get caught under someones feet. But she did great.
This weekend, we also got Sabrina's pictures taken again to mark her almost being 1 1/2 years old and something to mark the summer. So the pictures were 4th of July themed and she wore red, white, and blue. I have a couple preview pictures to post here, but there were so many great shots taken. We purchased a CD with all of the images to share later when the picture order comes in.
