Fireworks and Stars and Stripes

My kids rode their bikes out to get pictures of the fireworks in Charleston. I was wiped out, so stayed home. It is really nice having older kids and I especially enjoyed this article by Fr. Dwight Longnecker about freedom and responsibility -- it's something we have to discuss from time to time with our kids, especially when they lapse in the responsibility dept.

Enjoy Max's pictures. I hope everybody is having a wonderful holiday weekend.
