The kids and I headed to Kansas City for the Fourth of July weekend. Unfortunately, John had to stay behind to work. He was working Sunday night and was very disappointed to not be able to attend the party at the Siegels' this year.
We started the afternoon with Aiden's birthday and some yummy lunch. Then it was on the the wiffel ball game. I don't know how many the hours the boys (and a few of the girls) played ball but it was a good chunk of the afternoon. Sam was very excited that he got to play this year. He even made some contact during his at bats and reported that he had a hit. Ella enjoyed spending the afternoon doing snap pops and playing with the doll house in AC and Uncle Al's basement.
The kids and I also did some day parachutes, smoke bombs and snakes throughout the afternoon. Sam was very anxious to light some things on his own this year. We started with the smoke bombs and then I let him do some lady fingers and his Uncle Jono even let him light some fountains and a few other things.
Everyone had a great time with Bobby's explosions and watching five gallon buckets fly into the sky. The night fireworks were done quickly since the rain started coming down but we all had a nice time and plans were already being discussed for next year's event!
