July 25—Fireworks, Snow cones & Thunder

Ben Fireworks

On the 25th we headed over to the Mairs to celebrate Pioneer Day with some fireworks.  James never disappoints with the assortment he provides and this year he put on a great show.  We started before dark with some snakes, smoke bombs & parachute guys.  After dark James pulled out the sparklers, flowers and some very impressive fountains.  It was really hot and Nora whipped out the snow cone machine and I was soon having flashbacks of the snow cone runs I would make with my friends Jen & Amy during high school—my favorite being half coconut half blueberry.  The night ended with us all huddled in the garage watching the lightening as a huge thunderstorm rolled through.
