4th of July in the Mother Country

  Luke had school on the 4th, so after dropping him off in the morning Jake, Ella, and I went to Cambridge for the day.  We shopped around at the mall and the market, had a tasty lunch at the Real Pasty Co, and finished the afternoon with some Benets ice cream.



Ella made a monkey that she named Cinderella at Build A Bear. 
Such a fun place to take a 2 year old!  She loved it. 



That evening we went to RAF Feltwell to BBQ with some friends and watch fireworks.  The Red Arrows put on a pretty good air show earlier in the evening.  While we were driving up to the base, they were doing their thing so I took some pictures out the window. 


I was pleasantly surprised at how great the fireworks were on base!  The kids were big fans too.  It was a late night for them since it doesn't get dark enough for fireworks until after 10:00.  I love that about summers here.  Longest days ever it seems!  Poor Luke had to wake up early the next morning for school. 

  


Ella kept putting her arm around Luke, so I snuck behind for a picture.  Love these little people!

 
Good day.
