The day of the 4th!

We had a lot of fun going to BBQs with friends, lighting fireworks and watching them. We had a BBQ in the afternoon which was a blast with some great friends. They had planned some super fun games. We did a bubble gum blowing contest (which is pictured, and I won) and a watermelon seed spitting contest (the guys were better at this one, this is also pictured). They also had a water balloon throwing game, where one person would run in front of a line on people and everyone would throw water balloon's at them and they would try to dodge them. That was Justin's favorite game! Needless to say I didn't participate in this one, can you imagine a pregnant lady running across the field having water balloons thrown at her!:) That would be really funny! Later, we took a nap, ate some more food and lite some fireworks. That night we walked over to get a good view at the fireworks being lite from Roosenblatte Stadium. They were great, but by the end of the day we were all exhausted!! We slept well that night. We are so thankful to have made such wonderful friends in Omaha.
