July 4th

We continued our tradition by starting out the morning going to a 5K race in Newbury Park. It was nice to get out with the family and do a run. It was a good time, other than the first mile climb, which involved running up a hill for an entire mile, pushing a monster double stroller, with the front tire misaligned. We did finish the race - 38 minutes (did I mention the monster stroller?)

After the race, they had activities for the kids. Zach went straight to the slide...








Later in the evening, we went to see fireworks. Zach was very excited. We found out when we got there that the event required wristbands, which we did not have. They sold out of wristbands. Well, it was our lucky night because a guy came up to us as we were about to leave and gave us wrist bands!!!
