Today we went to the beach down the street from our house to watch the fireworks. I don't know why, but where we live the fireworks are always on the 3rd of July. Anyway, Daddy got to come home early from work so he took us to get our own fireworks before we left to see the big ones. When we got home from the store, we packed up and got in the bike trailer and rode to the beach. We played for a little bit, had snacks, and then it got dark. I really liked the LOUD fireworks and Emerson really liked any of the ones that were blue (like Thomas the Tank Engine, of course!). When the fireworks were finished, we jumped back in the bike trailer and headed for home. Boy were we glad we took the bikes to the beach and didn't have to sit in that traffic! When we got home, Daddy set off some of our own fireworks in the street next to our house. They were so cool!
The next day was the 4th of July so Mommy and Daddy cooked dinner for us on the grill in the back yard. We played basketball and threw the frisbee too! Once it got dark, we finished setting off our fireworks in the street next to the house. After those were gone, Daddy lit a fire in the firepit out back. Mommy let us roast marshmellows and make S'mores! It was pretty late, and Emerson fell asleep in Mommy's lap. It sure was a great holiday and I'm so glad to be an American boy!
