Fireworks!

This is the 4th of July...the way it is supposed to be! The 4th actually begins on the 3rd at Grandpa's house. He likes to get the action started sooner!

I have to admit that I was a little uncertain when we went to the fireworks tent. I had just woken up and then I was faced with all this stuff!!!

16,000 firecrackers at once?!

We started with smoke bombs. I stayed far away!

Then Grandpa helped me light one. NOW I get it!!! Fireworks!!! By the end of the day, I was pretty mad that Dad would only let me light the smoke bombs instead of the tanks and firecrackers...

All 16,000 at once. I didn't even want my ears covered!


I loved Grandpa's fireworks show. I just looked up and enjoyed all the colors. Every once in a while I wanted my ears covered, but overall, I LOVED the 4th of July! I clapped after several and asked for "more?" when they were all done.
