Fourth of July!

Yeah yeah I know I am a little late- and actually all of these pictures are the 3rd of July. We were invited to go to the Cooks house to see the Westfield Fireworks at Stanley Park. They are walking distance to the park which is great- we don't have to worry about finding a parking space and we get to hang out with friends- what could be better. I took none of these pictures- so thank you Bec and Emily.



We had sparklers! Um don't ask Matt about it- he thought it would be a good idea and a time saver to light 8 at once- turns out he was wrong. But the good news is that there is no permanent damage.

Bec and I both brought tons of glow stuff for the kids to wear to the fireworks.

Addie took a picture of the parents before we left- thank you Addie! (note bag of ice in Matt's hand- no worries he is fine now).

The kids couldn't wait to get to the park- many people had been there for hours picnicking. Note the orange things in Miles' ears- they were earplugs and they meant that he was able to stay for the whole show for the first time- yeah earplugs!


The fireworks started and Justin went over and cuddled in Emma's lap- love that Bec caught this moment before he moved.
It was a great night- already looking forward to next year!
