Fireworks!!!

Tonight I took the kids to Avondale Estates to see the fireworks show... It was a sort of spur of the moment outing, but I am so glad we went.  We met Kim and her family... kids, sister, sister-in-law, etc.  I had a great time.  It was so nice to hang with them... they are so laid back and nice.  The kids had a great time burning sparklers and popping poppers.  And Little A, as usual, found a woman to become infatuated with... she spent quite a while playing with the poor lady's hair.  The lady didn't seem to mind though... it was so cute.  It was just a relaxing evening.  Something I have not had much of lately.  Something that I really need more of.  The fireworks show was actually very good.  I found myself mesmerized by it a couple of times... the kids were mesmerized too.  No stress, no arguments, just a chill time.  I am really glad I went.  Lately I have been needing a hug.... and hanging out tonight felt like that hug.


I tried to take photos of the fireworks, but I am having to use my old camera, which has a terrible delay, so I kept missing the good shots... Oh well, they really were impressive fireworks---maybe because we had such a closeup view of them.  I will definitely have to keep this fireworks show in mind for next year.
