Tattoo 2009

Every year the base holds a Tattoo the weekend before the 4th of July. The Tattoo has become part of our 4th of July celebration since we moved to Ohio since it is a very patriotic event and it has the best firework show! Gabe and Sol had a blast running around and playing while we watched the fly-overs. Poor Sol kept getting tackled by Gabe, but he was a good sport about it! Aaron Tippin was the performer this year, but we didn't stay for the concert. Instead we headed home to put tired kids in bed. While we were walking home we could actually hear the concert - good enough for me! Once Zach, Porter and Sol were in bed we sat out in the driveway to enjoy the fireworks. (Gabe got to be a big kid and stay up for the fireworks.) I love that we get to see a great firework show from our driveway!

Looks like you have been a busy woman! Gabe is getting so big. Love his little tank that he is wearing. What a fun tradition and love that you have good friends to share it with.

Watching fireworks from your driveway, that's inconcievable! Hm, I hope that you tell Cheryl how much fun you had, since, I have had nothing but grief since watching Highland Day Fireworks last year from our driveway.

Sounds like a great time
