Our 4th of July...

Our 4th of July was a pretty lazy day! We had a great time taking Boone swimming at Wolf's Neck State Park and hiking the trails there. We love going to state parks so much we bought a year pass. It will allow us to get into any Maine State park. There are a lot of parks here we are looking forward to exploring.

At night we headed over to Bath, ME where we watched the traditional 4th of July fireworks. This was the first year Aaron and I watched the fireworks over water. It was a beautiful display!

Aaron trying to find a good place for Boone.

Boone loves the water! It was his first time in salt water. I don't think he liked the taste at all.

Boone had a blast. He was getting so tired but he didn't want to quit. Aaron had to make him get out of the water.

In Bath, waiting for the fireworks to begin.

I forgot my tri-pod, so my pictures didn't turn out great but it was still cool.

Here I got a good reflection off of the water. There were a lot of boats on the water watching the display. It looked like the fireworks were falling right on them. I am sure it was a cool spot to see them.

We also attended the Bath Heritage Days festival before the fireworks. We were able to get a fried dough and french fries to kick off our firework celebration. Those of you who know me, know that made my whole day!

I hope you all had as relaxing of a July 4th as we did!
