Rained Out

This weekend was the City of Allen's 4th of July celebration. I look forward to the good food, fun entertainment and fabulous fireworks every year. Unfortunately because of the rain this year, it was a bust. We got there between rainstorms and the area was almost empty. It looked like only City of Allen employees and a few volunteers were on the park grounds. Usually the park is packed with people with few places to park and the grass covered in blankets waiting for the fireworks. We ate about ten bites of our dinner before those in charge said we had to leave the tent because of lightning. We decided to turn around and go back home. They had cancelled the entertainment and were only planning on the fireworks at 10pm. We have loved all the rain, but were bummed about the party. Hopefully next year the sun will be shining and the blankets back.
