We even came up with a really fun game. We'd take turns going around the back yard and making an imprint on the playdough. Then the rest of us would try to guess what made the print. So fun, and educational too... bonus!
Later that afternoon Jarred & I took the kids to the fireworks stand. They were SO excited! This is the first year that we've let the kids get them, with the exception of a sparkler here and there. It was absolutely precious to see the sparkle in their eyes as they listened to the salesperson say what each one did... my husband included. He's a BIG kid when it comes to fireworks! Needless to say we came home with PLENTY! The kids couldn't stand it and insisted on lighting a few even though it had started to drizzle again as soon as we got home.
Madeline lighting a purple smoke bomb!
Very Pretty!
Chloe lighting the "dancing snakes"... no fear for this little girl! She LOVED every minute!
It was really pretty, and the "snakes" at the end were pretty freaky! LOL!
Colby lighting up a tank...
It launched a full attack on the yard without fear! LOL!
And then came the rain....
So they made the most of it and played chalk on the back patio.
The rain let up and it was back to the fireworks!
All in all we had a great time and even though we were all pretty soggy when it was time to go in... it was a day that was anything but boring!
We wish you all a happy and safe 4th of July as we celebrate our country's independence!
GOD BLESS AMERICA!
