thunder

Yesterday was our big event to bring in Derby, Thunder Over Louisville. We don't go down to the river much anymore because of crowds, drunks, fights, smoke, and sometimes because of the bad weather. This year it had rained a little and was a whopping 44 degrees. Being down by the river only makes it colder. Uhm, no thanks. So, for the last few years we have watched a few of the pre-firework events on TV until it was time for the fireworks to begin. We then pack up the car and find a pretty decent spot for viewing. Having the heat on, the music blaring, a few White Castles in hand, and snapping a few pictures along the way was exciting enough for me. It. Was. Freezing. Liam enjoyed it. I thought the noise might scare him. Wrong. The kid is so clogged with fluid that a bomb could go off and wouldn't phase him a bit. Plus, he digs sounds, vibrations, and lights, so I'd say it was right up his alley. However, I think the 'batman' lights were more appealing to his eyes. Landon, on the other hand, was more into his White Castles. He is his Father's son. Hopefully next year will be warmer!
