Has the sound of firecrackers started ringing in your ear yet? It has in mine. In our household "July 4" starts in June and ends after the actual 4th. Riley watched the fireworks stand hopefully each and every morning on our way to work. Any glimpse of movement around the stand earned us a circle back around. You should have seen the look on his face when he finally saw it open.
As soon we got home he started popping "Little Dynamites". He threw them, piled rocks on 'em, buried them in dirt, and plenty of other things. I think that boy might like "crackers" as much as he likes swimming.
You should see the variety of firecrackers available. They have the basic tanks and chickens. Now they also have ambulances, fire trucks, tractors, and other things of that nature. I think most of them are the same thing with a different cardboard shell. They also have fireworks shaped like beer bottles and mugs.
We've already put on a minature show with our cousin. I'm sure we'll put on another one soon. I would recommend "the Frog Prince" to anyone just wanting to pop some little fire crackers. Its a fountain-type. My favorite crackers are the simple ones, like the blooming flower, crackle balls, and smoke bombs.
Anyway, that's all I got for now. Have a blessed 4th!

What is it with boys and things that explode.
We haven't been able to pop firecrackers in years, what with them being illegal inside city limits and all. Still, I always liked the ones that made light shows, like bottle rockets and sparklers and such.
Fireworks already?
