Hundreds attend I Love America Night

Despite the constant threat of summer storms, residents refused to let that rain on their Fourth of July celebrations. Or rather, their I Love America Night.

Originally scheduled for June 28, the event was moved to July 2 and situated indoors at the Vestavia Hills United Methodist Church. It was hosted by the Vestavia Hills Chamber of Commerce and the Vestavia Hills Parks and Recreation Department.

Vendors filled the room so families could stop by each booth, and kids were treated to face paintings, balloon animals, snacks and activities. While the Pops in the Park concert went off as planned on June 28, families were able to enjoy to "Despicable Me 3" later in the evening on July 2 in the church.
