Fireworks Freaks

On Independence Day, we went to the State Fairgrounds to watch some fireworks. There were some geeky nerds there throwing a football and a frisbee in front of cars in the street. Then there was an old lady that we called "Grandma" who stayed in the car while the others in her family went and sat on a bench. She scooted into each of the seats (in the car) to try which one was best. She was sitting backwards to the fireworks. Someone in her family came and got her out. And there was this kid who was not being good. He was screaming and then ran and laid in the road. His mom came and pulled him up, over and over again. He started throwing a temper tantrum. Then his mom lifted him up on the roof of of her car, handed him a Sprite and a sparkler. We gave her the sparklers.

The big final fireworks weren't very good. But as we watched the fireworks, two trains went by. I bet it was fun to watch them from the train. I love the times when they shoot off smiley faces in the fireworks. I love fireworks. They're cool!

Everyone tried to leave at the same time. They were very impatient. We sat in the back of the truck and waited and watched. It was so stupid!
