More Fireworks

It's an annual tradition to shoot off fireworks (the legal kind!) at my in-laws' house every 4th of July. This year, they planned the "display" to take place on the 5th of July which was fine by us since we had pretty much nothing going on all weekend. :)

Hannah's cousins got her to dress up for the first time...


She didn't mind it at all but it was hard for her to walk in the huge dress, so it didn't last long.

Once the guys started the fireworks, Caleb's hands went right up to his ears:


Notice how he's holding a firework in his one hand. He would tell his daddy which firework to set off, then promptly sit on a stool by Grandma and Grandpa and clamp his hands over his ears.

Hannah didn't mind the noise, of course.


Daddy also taught Hannah how to work the hose. Unfortunately, Paige got a little bit wet due to Hannah's perfect aim...


Chris also got some smoke-bombs and "whipper-snappers" this morning, which the kids had fun with.


And finally, here are a couple adorable pictures of Grandma and Grandpa with their grand kids.



Happy 5th of July! Since we re-celebrated the 4th, I'm considering today a holiday as well. :)

It can be an official holiday as July 5 is also your great grandma Forsberg's birthday! Your kiddos are getting too big too fast. Can't wait to see them!
