Fireworks

This 4th of July we decided to celebrate at home. We cooked on the grill, updated our screened-in-porch (pics and info to come later), played in the pool, ran around outside (without shoes, as you can see from the pics) and played with fireworks for the first time! We made a trip to the fireworks stand ready to buy up lots of fun stuff. Being a crazy mom, I dressed both boys in 4th of July colors so we'd be picture ready for documenting another "first". Of course, both boys feel asleep in the car on the way to the fireworks stand so Daddy went inside to make our selections. After a quick trip and nap, the boys were ready to see what all the fuss was about. Jackson was super excited--he wanted to hold and light them by himself. Macklin was a bit more inquisitive and cautious. He would get close but once he saw the smallest glimmer of light, he would run as fast as his little legs would carry him to get away! Pin It
