Fireworks and Fun

Fireworks and Fun!

Ok, so I thought that yesterday we were not going to see fireworks or do anything fun. I guess I was feeling a little bit of self pity and all that...

But I went to church and the service was interesting. After that I went to a meeting for a community service project and the little one was a perfect princess while there for 2 hours.

I came home and a friend called and invited us to go out for the fireworks. So we went... the traffic was mad crazy, but we found parking. We all walked to the beach with 6 grown up and 3 kids (ages 2-5). Got on to the beach after toting a cooler behind me and falling down the stairs to the beach...lol!

But the little one saw her first fireworks show - she was sooo excited! She was in awe! Pointing at at the sky, jumping up and down, clapping, saying "pop pop" "oh ah" and cheering. She was hugging her daddy and gave him a random kiss (which is unlike her). The kiss was almost like a thank you to her daddy because he made the sky so pretty with sparkling lights for her!!!

The other 2 boys enjoyed themselves. The oldest was so funny on the way back to the cars. He kept yelling at the girls on the bikes, walking, and in cars (it was funny because they could not hear him in the cars) and saying "Hey, baby! I'm the pimp!". Then his little brother would say "what am I?". I wanted to reply too him (but didn't - better parenting skills kept me from saying it) "your the pimp jr.". LMAO

Also the oldest boy was just eating up the watermelon like it was going out of style. Of all the food I packed, all the kids ate and myself. Hubby had some tea and so did the boys' mother, and the boys' father had on of the juice boxes. The other 2 adults did not want anything.

It was fun!!! One of my better 4th of July!!!
