Amanda's Fourth on the Seventh

Amanda had to work every night last week and missed any chance for a fireworks display. So, we had a little show for her at our house last night.  After it finally stopped raining Amanda and Marsha began working their way through our small arsenal. Amanda loves the Simpson's episode where Apu says, "Celebrate the independence of your nation by blowing up a small part of it!" Fortunately, we just blackened the driveway a little!

Ed and I enjoyed the show, but Coda did not. She averted her eyes and refused to look at the shower of sparks. The ones that made noise were even worse. We eventually let her go back in the house to cower in her lair (under the ottoman). Can't wait till next year!
