Fireworks

We had lots of storms blowing through yesterday afternoon and evening.  Most of the fireworks around the area were able to happen during a brief breaks in the rain, but the city of Brentwood cancelled theirs and had it tonight instead.

We were not super motivated to go tonight but we did and were super happy we did.  We ended up parking at Woodland Middle (which is adjacent to Crockett Park where they shoot off the fireworks on the baseball fields).  Luckily it was not nearly as crowded as it would have been the night before and we easily found parking.  Before we've parked a mile away and walked on the greenway to the park.

We got to Crockett an hour early and sat in the car about 30 minutes as a rainstorm came through.  Then we walked just a few minutes and set up a blanket on the grass.

All the kids loved the fireworks.  Gray pointed at them and made "oooohhh" and "aaaahhhh" sounds before eventually getting comfortable on my lap and almost falling asleep.

The finale was awesome and the big boys thought it was super cool.
