July 4th: Fun with SNAPS!

Lauren and Nolan had a fun 4th of July!  Gramps and Grandma Marilyn took them to the parade in Lennox, SD in the morning (even though it was super hot).  (Sorry I have no pictures, but I wasn't there!)  Then they hung out at their house until after I was done helping with kettle korn.  Again, sorry, no pics!

That evening, we hung out at Grandma Bonnie and Grandpa Dave's.  I picked up some "fireworks" that were suitable for young kids...snaps...okay, I also got sparklers, smoke balls, snakes, and a few grounders!

The biggest hit was definitely the snaps.  Even (I mean especially) Nolan LOVED them.

The wind up!

His response after the "boom" part!

Another "BOOM" response!

My pretty girl!  She was all about helping with the snakes and smoke balls too.  I just hope she doesn't get as crazy as we did at the farm (as we got older!)

By the end, Nolan had even figured out what was important in the bag:  the white snaps, not the sawdust!
