Right now as I am writing this, booms are going off everywhere around me. Boom, boom, boom! Yes I definitely live in a town where fireworks are legal. Then tomorrow because of the area where I live in L.A., right up to the foothill, all the smoke from the fireworks will settle right along the mountain, sigh... oh well the run must go on.
Speaking of running, yesterday, Sean and I started our 4th of July with a local 5K, and my running partner joined us for the run. Then right back home to prep for our afternoon bbq of hamburgers, hot dogs, deviled eggs(my secret ingredient is hickory smoked salt), homemade baked beans and a fruit salad. We had the addition of a broccoli salad, sangria, chips and guacamole thanks to some of our friends.
Just a few photos of our 4th of July.
Enjoy!

Looks like fun! Kip is so cute!!! He just wanted to play too.
Glad you a happy 4th with lots of good food and friends. :)
The fireworks are legal??? That is amazing, but I'm sorry the smoke will settle right in your neck of the woods. All of that food looks absolutely divine! Did you make those oreo pops??? I'm so glad you had a fun day with friends.
I LOVE Ladderball, I'm actually not very good at it, but I still enjoy playing! Looks like you guys had a good time :)

Who doesn't like SPARKLERS!! Your red, white, and blue fruit mix looks festive and delicious. I completely agree with you on running the "morning after" the 4th or any other firework holiday. The smell of smoke is still strong and pieces of fireworks can travel way farther than I ever expected. I hope you had a good run!
Glad you had such a great 4th! Ours was laid back but we also grilled. Your meal sounds yummy!!
Looks like lots of fun! We had a huge fish fry with 40-50 people in our house!! YIKES!! But it was TONS of fun!! Where do you get that salt? I love making deviled eggs (although I only eat one) and would be interested in trying out your secret ingredient. ;)
Love that Kip! How do they do with all the firework? Looks like a great day. I like the pics in front of the flag.
