Friday evening, we went to see fireworks, which were set off at a high school here in town. We normally sit in one of the grassy areas near the mall parking lot to enjoy the show. This year, we were smart and took a sleeping bag instead of a sheet, so the prickly drought-dry grass didn't poke us through the blanket - this was a very nice bonus. Julian and Kathryn continued their tradition of circling our blanket at top speed, entertaining our neighbors as well. This year, their audience included a young man who seemed especially amused; he was about 18 months old, and he cackled each time our kids came to his side of the blanket. He eventually toddled over and joined us on our blanket, until his embarrassed parents came and collected him. He was adorable though. The show didn't seem to go as smoothly this year as it has in the past, and I have to say, it was on the thin side as far as the actual fireworks went. But, of course, our children didn't care. They loved it. Our pictures are not the best, but I thought they were okay considering the lighting, etc. and our camera....
