Fireworks



We thought we were extremely lucky when we found seats for the firework show right up front and center. Unfortunately for us the show consisted of an audience participation segment for those in the front. We like to refer to it as the, "Run for your life" section of the show. The last firework that shot out into the crowd was a big one that exploded after hitting the grass (that's the burnt picture). We were sitting about 30 feet away and promptly moved further back for the remainder of the show. It took quite a while to get the kids calmed down and most of them, sadly enough, did not enjoy the rest of the evening. Our video was not as good as this one (we "borrowed" it from someone off you tube) some guy took from further back. Joey and our nephew Talen were absolutely petrified and spent the night crying and begging to go home. All of the kids were very traumatized by the event and Bryce just thought it was cool that he was there to witness the whole thing. Needless to say we will not be missing the Pleasant Grove fireworks from here on out. It was the most excitement we've had for a long time!
