Pioneer Day Fireworks

Our friends, the Dunfords invited us to join them for fireworks and s'mores on the 24th of July - and we did. They had quite a gathering, plus combining everyone's fireworks made for a much more impressive show than any of us would have had on our own.

Duffy hung back a little bit, but stayed outside the whole time instead of hiding inside like last year. That's some serious progress.

Here is much of the crew gathered to watch the fireworks.
This was Peter's reaction to the first couple of fireworks, but everyone clapped afterward and he joined right in and was fine after that. (He did stay close to me and grab a little tighter when it was loud, but other than that, he was great.)

I have to wonder, what would the pioneers think of our celebration?
