This event was really all about giving our troops here in Kuwait a fun day.

There were fun activities for them to do like this water soccer thing. The troops were having a blast with it.

And of course they had the water slide set up for the kiddos, so that was how Calvin spent his time.

Mommy forgot to bring the water shoes and Alayna is such a girl and doesn't like the grass sticking on her bare feet so Lorna had to carry her back to the table.

They had quite the spread of food. All the normal 4th food to include hot dogs and watermelon. For dessert they had a cake made of lots of cupcakes to make the flag. The kids each had a blue cupcake with a star on top. They LOVED all that frosting!
Here they are gobbling it up.

And a quick video to give you an idea of the atmosphere....
When we got home we did an early bath and then a special movie night in the living room with sleeping bags and popcorn. The kids just loved it and keep asking when they will get to do that again!
