Our Best Firework Show Ever!

We had seven families come to our house for fireworks last night. Everyone who came brought fireworks to share and because of that we had the best firework display ever! The fireworks lasted three hours and the best fireworks were the loud illegal stadium fireworks that Tom brought. Thank you Tom for making our show even better! We only had a few scares last night. Adam had a sparkler that caught his shirt on fire, Mason burnt his toes with his sparkler and Aaron had to run to my front yard to put out a small fire caused by an illegal. Thankfully no one was seriously hurt. A big thanks to those who came and helped out with our show, it was a blast! We hope to see everyone back again next year.

Wow! What a night you had with 7 families. I bet you had lots of fun together. I wish we all could have been there and seen all your illegal fireworks. Fun, fun!

Dallas and I miss being at your house for fireworks. I talked all about how we go to the firework tent and fill baskets full of fireworks. The show we went to lasted only 10 minutes. I would have rather been to your show. There is always a little extra excitement when someone lights something on fire! Hint, hint.

Wow! What a blast. I was just outside watching what all our neighbors are shooting off. It is nice living on a hill where we over look all of our little town. I was just thinking what a great idea it would be to get a bunch of friends together to do what you just did. I love that picture of all the fireworks. It looks like an over-flowing Halloween bucket.

Happy Birthday to Ethan!

Love you!

Man! For every one blog post I do, you do 10+!! I read over all your posts. I am glad you guys are keeping busy with lots of fun things. I'll try to do better at keeping in touch. Lately I haven't had much time. Take care.

Looks like you guys had a fun 4th too! To make your blog wider go to edit html and scroll down to outer wrapper and change the width to 980px. Next go to main wrapper and change the width to 680px and also the sidebar wrapper to 260px. You may also want to change our header wrapper too depending on your image you put there. Mine is set to 880px, height 480px and then the header margin to 40px and the height 410px. I hope that helps!

Now that's one Fourth of July celebrating. The difficult part we don't get to be a part of the big celebration. We remember the good ole' days when Ethan would blow out his candle in the highchair, and then, look out, that boy could destroy a chocolate cake faster than anyone I know. Then his ruthless mother would wash him off in the cold hose water on the front lawn. Did save on the mess in the house though.
Happy to know you are busy enjoying the summer.
Love to one and all,
Grandma Dixie
