Fireworks

I love the Fourth of July. I think partly because I grew up in D.C. and I remember going with my family. It was such a great show and I remember thinking they were going to fall on me. Anyway, Bailey has been afraid of loud noises ever since she was born, so going to a fireworks show has never really been an option before. So this year was our first year to go to an official show. We went to Addison because it's one of the top rated shows in the country, although I have no idea why they are on the 3rd of July instead of the 4th. We waited to go until the last minute to make sure we didn't drive 45 minitues then end up rained out. Jeremy's work is super close to the Addison airport so we parked at his work and then walked about 1 mile to find a place to sit. We ended up finding a great spot on top of a small hill as close as you could possibly get. Before the fireworks started they had some old airplane's fly by doing tricks. The actual show lasted 30 minutes and was amazing! We could actually see the trucks that they were shooting them from and when they did the finale it looked like the trucks were on fire! I had a great time and everyone else was happy I enjoyed myself, but honestly they are just as content with or without a show.
