.4th of July.

The 4th of July landed on a Sunday this year. Since we live in Utah, that means party time all weekend long. Sunday night we let the kids put on their own firework show. We don't wait until dark (its not completely dark until 10pm this time of year) and there is no way I want the kids up that late. So, we started our late evening show about 7:30.

Josh and the kids gathered raspberries and strawberries before and we all enjoyed them before the show. Here's Brynn's messy strawberry face.


Brynn was all happy-go-lucky excited about what the kids were doing. Poor thing didn't know what she was in for. Here she is showing off her very own firework. This was until...

...the show began. She wasn't too happy with it all at first.

She tolerated it with the help of our hands covering her ears.

This is my absolute favorite picture of the night. Mass chaos!!! Kids lighting fireworks and running everywhere. There was some order to the madness even though it might not look like it.

Shane delegated the pyrotechnics out so that everyone had their fair share.

This is TJ's "finale" firework.
