The 4th is next week!! Next week! What do you normally do to celebrate? I feel like we do something different each year. Either a baseball game, a pool cookout, or visiting my parents. It also happens to be my grandmother's birthday so we usually have a birthday party as well (she will be 93 this year).
With KC being a month old on the 4th this year, I'm thinking we will stay home and possibly host my parents and grandmother. I put together some things to make it fun for the kids. I'm sure Party City/Target/Dollar Store have a lot of great items to make the day extra special for little ones. My boys aren't huge fans of fireworks (or apparently sparklers either) so I was thinking glow sticks may be a nice change. I'm sure we will have lots of great food and cake (or cupcakes) for dessert and I threw in our boys favorite "treat" drink - Izze (which we call Fizzy Pop). I'm in love with the straws from Etsy, it is funny how such little items can make a day feel even more special. 
What would you add? I feel like I've slacked off this year and would love some suggestions!
