Well - we had a toddler friendly Independence Day celebration at my sister's house. Kirk and I went out and bought some cheap crappy fireworks for the kids to watch, and the bigger kids (Kirk & Scott) to play with. We started out grillin up some grub.
Kirk and Nola doing their thing (dressed alike thanks to him):
After we ate the girls waited patiently for the show to begin
Nola played with an unlit sparkler
Allyson posed for a portrait
The show started out with 'black worms' and a hen that 'layed eggs'... both were a little lame if you ask me.
The crowd waited through the smoke in anticipation...
And then the colored smoke bombs started. The girls were yelling out the colors and then saying goodbye to them as they burned out, "Bye Bye Purple!"
And the Grand Finale - sparklers, poppers and flares. Some of the pictures looked like we were just setting the house on fire, others looked like a welding project...
And the evening ended with Allyson's very first sparkler on her own...
Happy Birthday America!
