Fireworks cost a buck-o'five

Happy fourth of July! We spent our sweltering day out in the backyard. We roasted food, had tacos, played in the kiddie pool and set off a bunch of little fireworks.

The fireworks cost far more than $1.05, more like $40, but we were certain it was worth the money because wouldn't our child who loves loud noises, excitement and bright things - love fireworks? Well, not really. She was interested but she was also very wary. I thought for sure she'd want to help hold a really quiet sparkler. (no she didn't) and as it turns out, B'dah was totally cool with the spectacle, but Riley, not so much.

So we'll try again next year. We still have some fireworks left to get us started!
