July 4th Around Dallas

Summer time is here and in full swing, the kids are out of school and looking for entertainment. With July 4th right around the corner and if you are not traveling out of town to visit family there is plenty to do around town. Amongst the abundance of shopping centers, water and theme parks, shows and concerts, there will be plenty of firework displays throughout the cities. Addison’s Kaboom Town is one of the most phenomenal parties of the season. Most cities in the area have their own fireworks display, however they are unparralled to Kaboom Town's for the simple fact that this show is choreographed to music. This "nationally" recognized show can be seen from pretty much any place inside the Addison city limits. There are many Kaboom Town watch parties that you and your family can attend. The place that most people are going to want to watch from is going to be Addison Circle Park watch party.Besides the fireworks there is plenty of great food, live music and even historical warplane fly-bys performed. Loof for rock climbing walls, giant slides, fun inflatables,sand art,an obstacle course,a massage area for when you need little break from the day and much much more.

For the theatre lovers out there Shakespeare Dallas
is performing Othello and All's Well That Ends Well. Each play runs on a different night and from waht I hear tickets are going quickly. For those of you that have high schoolers or are in high school I recommend going to see them since you are probably going to be reading them in school at some point.

Summer time tends to be a relaxing somewhat lazy time of the year, and even though it is very tempting to just lay out by a pool or go down to the beach, take sometime this year and check out some of the art shows, plays, concerts and other family oriented events that the cities are sponsoring. Check out our local lakes in Lewisville or Grapevine, rent a boat or have a picnic on the banks. Remember to have fun, be safe and don't forget the sunblock!
