We have a big, very loud “Cul-de-sac of Fire” and so far not one of my kids has gotten too scared to watch–I’m just lucky, I guess (and all the sugar and soda pop helps prime them, maybe.) My son told me that the Cul-de-sac of Fire is one of the things he most looks forward to all year.

Our 4th was similar to yours, but with LOTS of family. We’re in Utah right now, as is my (Washingtonian) sister, so it was us and two of our brothers (plus 12 combined kids and my siblings’ spouses) out on the street at like 10:30. Crazy Utah hours… :)

Natalie is way more of a man than your boys. Ha, kidding. Very cute. I remember when you first posted those pictures on your family blog. I still got a chuckle from it this time around.

It’s a bit of a culture shock because you couldn’t even buy a sparkler in New York, my home state.

Our fourth was GOOD. Low-key out at my parents, where we did our very own fireworks too. Suprisingly, no one cried.

Fireworks of all shapes and sizes are prohibited where we live, so I haven’t lit a sparkler in years.

We had a few sparklers and a loud one lit in our honour on Monday. LQ cried through most of it despite our “wheeeeeeeeeeeee!’s”.

That is dang hilarious!

Our 4th was great…and one day I’ll actually post about it. :)

She was fine last year, so I don’t know what was up this time! But she is old enough to realize it was her choice if she didn’t have any fun and she already tells me she regretted it.

And yes, when she was younger we definitely had a few of the moments that Clark so beautifully illustrated.

Glad it was better this year! :)

We had one year were Snow White would not let go of her ears for anything–even once inside going to bed. She hated every minute.
