July 3rd Fireworks Show

A nearby golf club hosts an annual July 3rd fireworks show. Matt had heard about it a while ago and ended up buying tickets for the three of us to attend.  We were excited to hear that our friends, the Potts, would be there as well.

Admittedly, we were a little worried if Anne would make it to 9:30 pm fireworks; however, we thought we would take our chances since it's so close to the house, we'd be able to quickly get home if she had a meltdown.

That evening, we packed up the car with blankets, chairs and bug spray and headed towards the Grey Rock Club.  Once we got there, we had a few lessons learned regarding things that we should have packed.  More snacks, booze, koozies and glow sticks, a must have among the kids and a glow-in-the-dark bracelet was pretty appealing to Anne.

The weather was lovely and played, ate dinner and caught up with our friends.  Right at 9:30 the fireworks started and Anne was a little scared at first, but started pointing at them and enjoyed the show.  We were so proud of her for being so good all night!  As soon as we put her in the car seat, we heard sweet, baby snores from the back.

A lovely way to spend the evening and we look forward to going back next year.  Thanks to the Potts for a fun evening!
