Fireworks... No problem :)

Eliza has been a happy girl now that we have gone back to the swaddle and she has been sleeping well. I am also a happier girl :) Within the last few days, Eliza has started paying very close attention to the animals. Coral desperately wants to be best friends with Eliza, Angel is very cautious around her and doesn't get to close and Saphira could care less!
Good night kisses from Coral


So, I have never seen a love for fireworks like I have in Nebraska. It is legal to shoot them in the city limits here, so for several days before the 4th, there are tons of fireworks going off. The first year we moved her we were certain we were in a war zone. Last night we were afraid Eliza wouldn't sleep, but were we wrong! She slept like a champ :)

Since we don't have family in Lincoln, I was getting worried about spending another 4th alone since Michael has to work for the 3rd year in a row. But, thankfully, Kimmie and Brian invited us out to the Gerlach home for a party. It was very nice to be around people and the food was wonderful! Michael was able to make it out when he got off of work and join in on the festivities. Eliza seemed completely indifferent to the fireworks. All in all, a very good day!
