Last night we took the kids to see fireworks for the first time in about ten years. My older children have seen big fireworks displays--a long time ago, but the younger ones never have. We didn't take our camera because I think photos of fireworks are kind of dumb--they just don't convey what you're seeing (case in point: see above). And we figured wouldn't be able take good pictures of the family because it would be too dark. But I wish we could have gotten pictures of the kids--especially the little ones. Ryan's wide-eyed, jaw-dropped delight; Rachel calmly lying on her back and sucking her thumb while she enjoyed the show; Jessica huddled in my lap with her hands over her ears, even trembling a little sometimes, but watching the display nevertheless. It was a lot of fun--my kids are so darn cute!

Sounds like your family had a great time!
We're going to be doing fireworks tonight instead of the 4th since it's illegal to do them in Long Beach.
Have a Happy Fourth of July!
I see what you mean with the picture of fireworks.
That would have been very cute to see. All your kids' reactions and not the fireworks.
