Fourth of July Extravaganza - Night!

Eating a fun picnic style 4th of July dinner! The chocolate cake was yummy!
The kids had fun after dinner playing some western-themed games!

What a beautiful setting!
We found a huge tarantula while waiting for the show to start!
We also found a huge lizard!

Family Fun before the fireworks!

Daddy and Keira. I love how the moon is coming up over the mountains.

Miss Liberty put on a show of her own!


Bang! The fireworks were set to some great American tunes!


After a day of fun in the sun, and a nasty sunburned back (me), we had a finger licking good bar-b-q dinner at the resort's Last Territory Western Steakhouse! This restaurant looked just like a western-town and had a bunch of western- themed games that we played after dinner! Once we were done with dinner and games, we headed next door to the golf course to set our blanket up for the firework show (the resort provided us with our very own blanket as a gift). We enjoyed two live bands out on the field until the fireworks started! The weather really cooled down and by firework time it was just the perfect temperature. The fireworks show was awesome! We had the best view! It was so much fun to sing along to familiar tunes and watch a spectacular show! Fourth of July weekend at the Hilton Tucson El Conquistador was the best! We never had to leave the resort! This will for sure be something that we will want to do again next 4th of July!

What a fun thing to do for the 4th, I'll have to keep that in mind. And I love old western themes! Except ew on the tarantula! It is one of my goals to see a broadway play on broadway!
