The 4th of July (pm)

We were going to go back to the parade sight for some fireworks last night, but heard it was really crowded and parking was crazy.  Some neighbors thought we'd be able to see the fireworks from our house so we took a chance and stayed home.  It was a long wait for it to get dark. The kids did what ever they could to keep busy.

After lots of running, smoke bombs and sparklers it was fire work time.

We actually had fireworks going off in 3 directions around us.  It was kind of cool to see them no matter where we looked.  We even had some go off right in front of our house just after the kids went to bed.  It was a mini show just for Jon and I.

I think we have the start of a new tradition!
