Do you ALWAYS go see the fireworks?

post #1 of 20
Thread Starter 
We had a busy day with my bil and neices and nephews and we are all tired. I don't feel like dealing with the crowds, the heat or the Mosquitos. Il have two kids who don't want to go to fireworks, two that do and a husband that leaves for work at 4:30 am. I feel guilty telling two kids no, though

we're lucky enough to have a fireworks display by the community that we can see from our house.  My dd and I just walked a little down the street to see it "first hand" and after about 5 minutes she said "we can see the same thing from our backyard in the pool." so that's what we did!!

Okay, I have one major pouty boy! And I do feel guilty because we have always gone, I even bribed them with the promise of ice cream tomorrow. No luck.

We usually do but I do think we've missed a few, years ago. We decided not to go tonight. I still wanted to go, but my DH & DS didn't want to, it's hotter than Hades here, and we just decided to skip it. Nobody pouting here tonight.

No, and I can't remember the last time we did. at-home fireworks are not allowed here. The kids are in bed, and I hope I get some sleep, too.

We missed community fireworks a few years ago (I can't remember if it was two or three years ago) because our community cancelled them at the last minute due to the bad economy. It was such a let down. Since we live in areas where we don't have relatives (MS or ID), we don't tend to have big celebrations during the holidays so not seeing community fireworks is like not recognizing the holiday at all.

So, I ended up going. Just me and the little one. We had a good time!

We didn't go anywhere yesterday.  dh won't deal with the crowds. 

 

We watched the fireworks at our river place from the boat on June 30th.

Haven't went to a fireworks show, in several years.

 

I wouldn't fight the crowd and a parking place, to see all the fireworks in the world.

No we don't. We actually haven't gone to our county ones in years......................... But always the weekend before the 4th our local dirt race track has them and we can watch them from our yard. So those ones we usually see.
