4th of July: Fireworks and silliness

We decided to brave the big fireworks show in Astoria!  It was over the river at the maritime museum so we found some interesting things to look at and do while waiting.  Along with some silliness.

This is the view we had of the river in front of us.  That's where we sat, on the bench in front of the Columbia boat.
 
 
 

We had some glow lights to play with...

...and sights to see

 

Even the aliens came to watch :-)
 

Is  it time yet?  Look at those cute faces!

there's the alien's brother!
 

now that's an anchor!
 

the sun is finally going down!  It was a nice sunset.

passing the time with some games.

Now for the silliness, I think we were getting tired and bored.

First Aric with his pretend campfire...

 

Then April with her glowing show...

Aaron has his own version of a laser beam show...


 Finally, time for the show! I had fun playing with my camera settings and taking pictures of the fireworks.
