The (Third and) Fourth of July

 We started the celebrations last night at my parents' house.

 
 They had taken the kids to get fireworks on Sunday, so all that was left was planning when to do what.

 Jack taught Alice how to light...

 ...and run!

 A little dog showed up and the kids were thrilled.  They were a little disappointed when the neighbors came home and it was their dog.

 Trying (and failing) to get a serious picture.

 They had lots of fun with everything.

 (Except cleaning up afterward.)

 Jay had to work today so this morning the kids and I went to see Despicable Me 2.

 This afternoon we went and got another small stash of fireworks for tonight.

 Until Jay got back we kept busy with smoke bombs and poppers.


 Eyeballs!

I hope you had a safe and fun Fourth!
