Fourth of July

We were very lucky to have lots of fireworks this weekend! On Friday, we went to the Curry's and set off a few in the backyard.

On Saturday, we went out to a friends farm, and saw the small town parade on the way. At the farm we ate yummy, homegrown burgers, and did some swimming. All the adult (and I use that term loosely) males were doing flips off the diving board, and Aaron was not about to be outdone:






Thankfully, no one needed a medic.






Wyatt discovered all the tractors, and like any male named "Wyatt" he drove all 5 of them:







We all went home for long, yummy naps, and then a HUGE storm rolled in. The night cooled off, and we went to watch fireworks, but they had been postponed to Sunday. So we found a vacant lot in the middle of Moore, and watched all the neighborhoods around shoot them off. We had no idea you could buy this sort of stuff at the Fireworks stand! I guess the cops gave up, b/c we saw them just drive past people shooting them off in the streets.



The kids poked their heads out the sun roof to watch all around, and Wyatt said, "This is the best family fun night ever!"



So, on Sunday we packed up for fireworks again, and watched them in Norman. We were treated to 3 other shows on the way home, not including the "Redneck Specials" along the way.
