Fireworks (better late than never!)

We had the joy of seeing fireworks in a community that surrounds a lake. It's beautiful, to say the least; and we got there just in time to see them start! Perfect timing--no wait--when you're toting around a 2 year old and twin babies!

Addie talked about seeing the fireworks the whole ride out there. They were going to be BIG and red and purple and blue and... Paul got her out and put her on his shoulders. Within two explosions, she was begging to get back in her car seat in the car! So we rolled down the windows and let her sit in the car. Paul stood at her window, and I think she held his hand the entire time as she huddled in her seat!

Here are a few of my favorites, but you can go here to see the rest of them! Hope you had a blessed fourth (two weeks ago)!

  2. The same thing happened with us. I really talked up fireworks to Edward. Literally after the second boom he jumped and wrapped his arms and legs around me, then he wanted Daddy and finally Brooke. He kept saying "go home, go home." He was terrified and all night he would wake up about every hour shaking. Needless to say...he slept with us that night and woke up telling us the fireworks scared him!
