'Twas a relatively quiet Independence Day at the Wight House. Abby and I set out in search of a giant picture frame for our giant family photo that I had printed recently (which we found) and the yearly Old Navy flag shirt (also found), and we enjoyed standard 4th of July fare-- hamburgers and potato salad and strawberries-- for dinner. And then, since it was a hot day, we finished off the meal with red, white, and blue shave ice in the back yard.
Then it was bed time for the boys, hot tub time for Abby, and a socially distanced gathering with the neighbors in the cul de sac (featuring patriotic cupcakes, cookies, and 21+ drinks) for the adults. And then we watched a sprinkling of fireworks in the distance from the observation deck.
Yep. 'Twas a pleasant enough day. And I am grateful for the moments.
