On the actual 4th, we kind of hung low. We went to the mall and just relaxed. In the evening, the kids all played in the cul de sac and the sandbox. Once it got dark enough, we broke out sparklers and those pop rock thingies and there were a few smoke bombs. I am not fond of fireworks, but I found an idea to place the sparkler in a plastic solo cup so the kid's hands are protected. It worked pretty well and made me feel a bit better. The kids had a great time playing outside in the dark and were all very sad when it was time for bed!
