For an update regarding the last post, we had a good time at Schlitterbahn, but not as good as Aiden and Alex. We avoided rain problems, but any of the rides had excruciatingly long lines. V and I waited more than an hour for the one ride we were able to enjoy together. The kid areas, of course, didn't have lines and that was fine by the boys. It was good to see Dave, Audrey and Alex. Thanks for visiting, friends.
To celebrate the holiday, I grabbed an old bag of sparklers that didn't make it out for earlier 4th of July celebrations and led the family to the backyard.
(Aiden isn't the most curious fellow when it comes to fire, so it took some convincing to get a sparkler in his hand. But after he got over his fear, I had to slow him down to keep the errant sparks from igniting the house.)
(Aiden gets the fear of fire--and most things--from his mom!)
Next year, I may get to play with some actual fireworks.
If you know where we live, you're invited to a BBQ this weekend. If I don't see you, I'll let you know how it goes (er, maybe).
That's all for now,
Marty

I must say I was excited that Aiden overcame his fear and decided to participate in the sparkler experience since it was the 4th of July. However, the thought did cross my mind a few times that he might catch the house on fire or myself. I moved!!
Please forward me the firework pictures.
Thanks
