Fireworks

Happy 4th of July a few days late! Cory and I both had the day off and it was great. On Tuesday evening, we went to see a fireworks show in Statesville. We were a little concerned about how Carson would handle the big booms...but to our surprise he LOVED the fireworks.

On Wednesday morning, our neighborhood had a parade which featured a lot of decorated strollers and bikes...we even had Elvis. After that we took Carson to get his haircut and then came home to prepare for a block barbeque. Even though we have been in our house for 8 months, we still haven't met everyone on the block so thought we needed to be social and mingle. There we met, a 7 month old little boy that Carson was very fascinated with. Carson was also very in to a 18 month old little guy who Carson looked down to...Yes, our 11 1/2 month old is taller than an almost 19 month old. :) As I watched the other children, I couldn't believe that Carson was that 7 month old about 5 months ago...OH, how he has grown. Then I would watch the 18 month old (which is only 6 months away) and I immediately got a headache...OOOOHHHH - what I have to look forward to!!!! You could say I got quite an experience in the 4hours we were there. Again, Carson loved the fireworks that they guys shot off and would clap after every one.
