We started our independence day celebration at the beach. Although it was fun, I wouldn't go again the the 4th since we spent quite a bit of our time just on parking and walking due to crowds.
	A good time was had by all at the beach. Even Kiera who was scared of sand last summer decided it was ok. Lydia had a few mouthfuls decided she didn't like the stuff though.
We also took our girls to their first movie which was fairly sucessful. Kiera liked the fireworks.
