Fireman and Fireworks

We celebrated Independence Day Eve with all sorts of fire-related fun.  It was free evening at the Children's Museum, so we joined Matson and company for some boating, fishing, rocket-launching and fireman fun. 
 


Kyle was not at all a fan of the whole fireman's outfit:
 

Because of all the crazy dry heat & wildfires we've had all over the state, there was a state-wide ban on all fireworks (even the professional ones), but downtown Denver petitioned to keep theres.  Not wanting to miss the fireworks, we braved traffic and crowds to see the Colorado Symphony Orchestra and Fireworks at Civic Center Park.  Despite getting there 10 mins after the start of the music, we still were able to easily park 1 block away and find seats with a good view. 

Kyle REALLY loves fireworks (he's seen half a dozen shows already in his short life!).  So even though he was up WELL past his bedtime, he did great.  He sits on daddy's lap with his mouth wide open in amazement.  I seriously love watching the fireworks through his eyes!
