Fireworks, Holiday World, and Kids...Lots of Pics!!!

Hello!

Hope everyone had a great Fourth! We did. We went to his mom's house for dinner and fireworks. Here are a few pics of our day...well, night rather. :)
Baby Girl on her way to Nana's house.

Baby Girl and Lil' Red swinging.
Horseshoes anyone?


Happy Fourth!! Pretty decorations.


My MIL's neighbors' dog. Annoying little thing but cute!
Sparkler time!! Yes, he was supervised closely. Baby girl was even able to have one. As long as someone was holding it too. She loved them.
Our fireworks. I couldn't get a good shot of any of them. :( These will have to do. I tried anyway! :)



Ok, so I wrote in my last post that we were going to Holiday World. We went Thursday the 5th. Perfect weather for us. Overcast with occasional sunshine and around 75 to 80 degree weather. Lots better than the 90s we had been dealing with. According to family and friends back home we had a heck of a thunderstorm roll through here. My grandma who watched baby girl said it flooded a little at her house.


Anyway, here's a few pics...


We stopped on the way there at a Denny's. You can see some of the shirts that we tye dyed for the trip. :)


Lil' Red was the first one on the little bumper boats.
We're flying now!
Flying again!

At Splasin Safari. Lil' Red enjoying the water in the wave pool.

My oldest neice enjoying the water.

Lil' Red taking the wave! Jumped right into it.

Another wave got him. hehe

I sat on the edge of the wave pool and shot this picture as one of the many waves was coming at my feet.


Pretty much everyone had a good time. We had some drama but it didn't hurt the kids one bit. They had a blast and keep asking to go again. We didn't get to ride or see everything but they had fun and that's all that matters!


It was a little wierd because a lady grabbed my arm and said that we had a good idea about having all the kids in the same color shirts. Then she went on to say that when an abductor steals a kid they change their clothes but often don't change their shoes. She said that we should be mindful about what shoes our kids were wearing. We told her that we were fully aware of the dangers and thanks. Politely of course. The thing that bugged me was she asked while my oldest neice was standing there. It freaked her out. We had to calm her down. We did the shirts so that we could do a quit glance and count all the kids. We had 6 with us.


Was a good day but also long. We got there when it opened at 10am and we didn't leave till 7pm. My youngest neice didn't even make it far out of the parking lot before she fell asleep. My son and other neice made it about an hour away. I was shocked at that.



These were taken today(Friday) before we left to get the fim developed, well put on a CD anyway.

I tried to get a pic of my flower bush but I guess I was too close.




That's all for now. Have a great weekend and thanks for looking/reading! :)

I got everyone's money when I told them I needed it and placed the other this afternoon. We're going to Holiday World. The kids are super excited and I'm fixin' to go outside and tye dye shirts for the all the kids. 6 shirts. Glad I bought 10 shirts cause I haven't dyed a shirt since I was in elementary school! hehe
