Fireworks!!!!

Kali got to attend the 4th of July festivities this year and surprisingly...she loved it!!! I was so worried that since the fireworks don't start until 9pm and she's normally asleep in her bed by that time, that she would get super cranky and scream the whole time, or that TJ and I wouldn't be able to go to the fireworks because we had to get her home.  But thankfully neither scenario happened. 
We walked down to the ball park near TJ's parent's house, set up our chairs and settled in to enjoy the firework show.  Kali clapped and pointed at them. She even made some "Ptth" noises which I guess sounded like them going off (boom).  I'm not sure. But it was adorable!

Sitting at iHop waiting for her pancakes...looking so thrilled!

Waiting for the show to start

She was so excited!

She would point at certain ones. I think they were her favorite

This is one that Kali kept pointing at.

These are my favorite too!! =)

 We had so much fun and I'm glad Kali got to enjoy them! 

And, my sister and nephews were in town for the past 3 weeks before they got transferred to California.  I was so happy to get to spend some time with them and have lots of pictures to share.  But that's another post so I can talk about Katrin and the boys!  I'm going to miss them so much, but can't wait to be able to go visit in a year or two with Kali and take her the Wild Animal Park.  I remember going there when I was little and have lots of fun memories (like the train ride that goes straight through the critters and you could practically touch the zebras!), that I hope Kali can have too.

Anyway...like I said, another post! :-)
