This year we spent the 4th of July in Des Moines, IA and really loved it! Besides the humidity, I am a big fan of the celebrations in the Midwest part of the country. The fun started on July 3rd when we went to a parade in West Des Moines. We didn't realize the amount of candy that the kids would accumulate during the parade! They were able to get right up on the side of the parade lines and gathered a bunch of candy. We were able to sit on the grass in front of the church building that we attended that summer for the parade. That night we went to the fireworks show in Downtown Des Moines that they did over the river.
The next day was the 4th of July and the only day off that Rob had all summer. We had a barbecue/water fight with the other families from Now Communications at a local park for most of the afternoon, did some swimming, and then went to the fireworks show in West Des Moines at Raccoon River Park.
