Fireworks...run!

I love how every year, we forget that they shoot off fireworks at the fairground the Sunday before the fourth.

It never fails, we forget every single year. I love it though, because what always ends up happening is Mom yelling "Guys! We forgot about the fireworks and they just started them! Get in the van!".

And no matter where we are, or what we're doing, we stop and RUN out to the garage and pile into the van.

That happened again last night, only I think they were having some problems last night and never got many fireworks going up in the air. It was still fun though. The kids and I ran around in the soccer field (Most of them were barefoot), and the boys did gymnastics tricks to amuse us.

We got tired of waiting after a while, and decided to go for a drive in the country. The sky was really dark and clear last night, and we could see the fireworks displays of all the other towns around us. It was beautiful, they looked so small. Sophia said they looked like "Fairy Fireworks".

I love things like that.
