We also had some fun lighting our own fireworks and the kids thought it was SO COOL! We have never done anything like this before so the Doc had an interesting time inside the Fireworks store (gotta love NH!) trying to figure out what to get. He ended up getting 2 boxes with 25 shots, and a couple flying bee thingys. Maybe next year we'll get a little more ambitious since we have a little experience under our belts!
Since we were in southern NH for the 4th we missed the fireworks in town. Since I saw how much the kiddos loved them (even Evan!) when we did them, I really wanted to try and find some to take them too. I was psyched when my Mom mentioned that Weare, NH was holding their fireworks on Saturday. Since it was close by to her camp, and we were going to be there anyway we decided to go (my Mom hadn't seen any fireworks either). They had a really cool carnival set up in their center of town and we were able to get really great seats and have time to let the boys play a few games and get some treats before the fireworks started. It was a long day, but they did so well, even Evan who by the end of the show was asking to go to the car.
Here are a few pictures from our various 4th of July festivities!

I was asked if I was still going to make them do this when they are teenagers...well isn't that a silly question! Ha! |
