We're about a month behind on posting this, but some videos are worth digging back out of the camera roll.
This is our Fourth of July โ no fireworks (dry summer, tall pines, not worth the risk), so instead our family joined a lantern send-off on the pond at Kidder Creek camp. Quieter than fireworks. Honestly prettier too.
It was a good reminder that the best traditions aren't about the biggest bang โ they're about who you're standing next to when the lights go on. Grateful for a summer like this one, glow sticks, dripping kids, and all.
Hope your Fourth (whenever you're reading this) was just as good. ๐ฏ๏ธ
