Favorite Traditions

Sarah –
I spend 4th of July with family, enjoying time together and checking out a 4th of July Festival like the ones in Downtown Green Bay or Oshkosh. Since I was little this holiday also meant grabbing a cob of corn that is dunked in butter and kettle corn (it was a one time a year purchase then) and of course…fireworks that reflect beautifully on the water they are shot off over.

Shaunae –
I have always loved the firework displays. Whether it’s in Downtown Green Bay or exploring another city’s beautiful display, it’s always a magical time. We love dressing up in our favorite red, white, and blue outfits (complete with matching glow sticks – of course) and playing with sparklers until it’s too dark to see anything but the bright flames. Being outside and with my family is my absolute favorite part of this holiday.
