What a great day! We started out by getting all dressed up (well, Carson and Mommy at least) and heading up to Portland with Poppy & Nonna to see the
Lion King! Carson was completely overwhelmed, but when it was all over and we were headed home said, "Mommy, I want to go see that again." Yes!

After the show we headed to Tom & Cindy's for their annual 4th of July BBQ where we ate great food, hung out with the family and threw water balloons until we headed down to Tom's pond to watch a show put on by a certain family member who shall remain nameless, but who travels to areas where s/he can buy darned good fireworks each year.
