we had a fabulous 4th of july as a family. we participated in the neighborhood parade led by a fire truck and finished the parade off with a few yummy shaved ice treats. rather than go to a firework show, we decided to make one of our own (the safe kind of course). daddy had actually never done fireworks himself so he was hesitant with all the news of accidents. but he went and got some fancy fireworks including bang snaps, spinners, sparklers, a few bomb looking things and some rather large ones that gave us an entertaining show.

| starting off light, with a few bang snaps |
 |
| moving on to the sparklers |
 |
| of course sparklers require a steady base |
 |
| being a firework newbie, daddy caught on quick |
 |
| of course daddy took all precautions by using a grabber to drop the big fireworks in a bucket of water. he said the fireworks instructions said they could go off when you think they are done. |
 |
| we loved the colorful show these fireworks displayed |
