Fourth of July

We had a great Fourth of July this year. We had a yummy barbeque at my parents house, and then walked down to the golf course to watch the fireworks. I thought that this would be the first year that my kids would see fireworks and not be scared- but I was wrong!
The kids had a great time running around the golf course- especially in the dark. As soon as the fireworks started Emma started screaming. I had to walk with her for about 5 minutes just to calm her down. She was so desperate for the loud noises to stop that she pleaded "I just want to take a nap" to get out of the scary situation. When she was finally calm she kept repeating "I like that, I like that". The funniest part was that she wouldn't open her eyes. She probably sat with her eyes closed for a good 20 minutes!

  1. How sad! Brynlee slept right through the fireworks, and Logan was amazed by them! The whole way to the car he said "firworks, BOOM!"
