Tips and Tricks Tuesday- 4th of July, 2013

Oh boy, just two more days and we'll be sitting under the open night sky watching some gorgeous fireworks.  We've seen some pretty amazing shows in the past, so we're eager to see what our new city has to offer.  Last year, a nearby fire cancelled all the firework shows in the surrounding areas. We love celebrating the 4th with a great show, but we understand and are so thankful for our firefighters who give us warnings and risk their lives to keep us safe.  My heart breaks for the firefighters and their families who just lost their lives in Arizona.  Our thoughts and prayers are with you.
