Big Fireworks in the Sky!!

Mary had a lot of fun and new experiences this 4th of July.  We got up in the morning and went to a near by town that has a parade.  We joined up with some friends and had a great time.  We saw lots of fire trucks, police cars, flags, horses and old cars.  All the fun things in a small town parade! 
 



In the evening we went to see a beautiful fireworks display put on at the fair grounds.  We didn't go onto the fair grounds as it is really crowded and hard to get out of.  We watched in a local church parking lot that is near the fair grounds.  Rich took a video of the last few minutes of the show.  You may think, "Oh more fireworks..."  but if you enjoy some really good concert band music, you might enjoy the video.  We post it for our family memories and Mary was marching around the living room and clapping her hands as I played it.  I know she will be talking about her special 4th of July where she got to see the big fireworks in the sky for a long time to come.  In past years we just had some small fireworks for her in the back yard.  So this was very exciting and memorable for her.
