Happy 4th Everyone!

I convinced Jason that we should wake Vinnie up at 9:15 p.m. tonight and drag him over to see our local fireworks. It was a 50/50 idea. Could have turned out disastrous but fortunately we all had a great time. It took Vin a few minutes to warm up to the loud booming but once he got past that it was all "Whoas" and "Bravos" (Jason taught him that one - so cute) and "More Please". What a great time we had! Now we're back, Vinnie is fast asleep, Jason is playing a quick game of MLB Baseball, and I decided to do a post.


First here's a look back at Vin watching the fireworks last year....

Now for this year (Note the existence of a 'blankie' in most of the pictures below. It is a bond few could break.)


Pre-show fun...













The Show Begins!

Terrified by the loud booming




Interested but still not sure













Now he's digging it








A tad bit cranky during the walk home

Glad you enjoyed a wonderful 4th of July. And I'm glad you were able to wake up Vin and enjoy the fireworks without him getting upset!
