Fireworks

Every year this weekend our town has it's annual community days festival. It's not much but the kids love it! They have a whole kid zone set up for them where they have big jumpy things, obstacle courses , face paintings and more.

We took the kids there this weekend and of course i forgot to charge the battery for my camera so i don't have any pictures to show of it, but it was fun! It went on friday and saturday and then saturday night at 10:00pm they had the fireworks. We always have them this weekend instead of July 4th (which is kinda nice cause then we get to take the kids somewhere else on the 4th to see them, they like that they get to watch them twice)

We had all planned on going to them but at about 9:20 Hailey fell asleep and was out! So Brad stayed home with her and i took Caiden by myself. He did some sparklers before the fireworks started. I have different setting on my camera and one of them is for fireworks so the pictures turned out so cool...





This one is caiden swinging his sparkler around and around.

This was the finale. Caiden's favorite part!!!

Brad called me right after they were over and told me that they scared the crap out of Hailey. We live right down the block from where these were set off and she woke up SCREAMING!! Poor thing, she had no idea what was going on, but we got her settled down and she's back to sleep now.

Great pics of the fireworks! That's so cool you have a setting on your camera for that. Poor Hailey being woken up from the booms. Awww.

Those pics of the fireworks are so cool. Poor little sweetie. I think when kids are around that age they usually are.

I remember one time I went to a parade and they were playing bagpipes and Candace started to cry so I had to get up and take her for a little until they passed.

I always found it funny they did fireworks in town so early! It was kinda neat. But I remember last year it was REALLY EARLY. Like more than a week early.. that was odd LOL. See you soon!! :-) Let me know if Brad wants a family photo done. I can take off an hour or so maybe saturday or sunday to do them that weekend. Need to know though .
