Symphony on the Prairie - 4th of July Style

Carl and I have been to Symphony on the Prairie several times, but never for the Independence Day performances, until this year. We went to SOTP the Saturday before the 4th, and enjoyed ourselves. Boy, was it a hot day though. The concert started at 8pm, and we got there before 7 to set up our camp chairs and walk around. I noticed this person trying to stay cool:


We also saw some Revolutionary War and Civil War re-enactors.



We loved the music we heard. We enjoyed some delicious kettle corn...yummy! The fireworks were fantastic.



I was wanting to get a photo of the flag, and just I pressed the shutter down, the wind changed direction and the flag was waving like this. Love it!
This was a fun part of our 4th of July weekend.

Candle Giveaway!

Since my husband is working on a Saturday; since it's been a cloudy, rainy day; and since it's been almost two months since I have done a blog post. I am doing a GIVEAWAY! Carl is working on a Saturday evening for a co-worker, but he will have Labor Day off. That will be nice because Carl will be able to stay at our family reunion as long as he likes. For the past few years, he has only been able to stay for an hour before heading into work. Instead of staying home by myself, Mom and I went shopping. We went to a consignment store called Off The Hanger, where I bought this pair of shoes for only $6:   Cute, huh?   We also went to Bath and Body Works. They were having a Labor Day Sale. The 3-wick candles are 2 for $20 this weekend. The mini candles are 2 for $5, and they also have lots of other things on sale. I love it when they have the candles on sale. I absolutely love the candles at Bath and Body Works!   I bought these two large candles.
