July 4th

This was our fifth year attending the July 4th event at my alma mater, Dublin Coffman High School. It's quite the shindig - a day-long event that includes a table decorating contest, a frisbee competition for dogs, fair-style food vendors, kids' games and activities, live music (this year - Smokey Robinson), and of course, fireworks (the city also puts on a parade that takes place in town earlier in the day).

The city does an incredible job with this event. It's one of the many things I love about our community.

This tradition has become one of my favorite things that we do together as a family.

How do you celebrate the Fourth of July?
