Joseph and I made a run for 4th of July dinner and fireworks around 6pm. So we were a little behind the times. Apparently, we were A LOT(!) behind the times as there were almost no fireworks to be found!. D’oh! We ended up getting one package of snakes and 2 packages of Piccolos and using the last three packages of sparklers that we had from last year.
Turned out nicely though. 🙂 We didn’t go see fireworks because they girls were still pretty fussy from their long weekend of sickness, so intead, we just did ours. But, then other people were shooting off all kinds of gorgeous ones, so we just sat on our deck and watched them for a while. It was peaceful and nice and we didn’t have to fight traffic.
The piccolos, by the way, are the LOUDEST(!) things I think we’ve ever set off. Chris, our neighbor, was outside on his stoop when Joseph and I went out to get started. He must have known what we were up to because he went in and closed the door. 🙂
