This year for July 4th, well July 3rd to be exact, we decided to join Campbell's family and go to Kaboom Town in the Addison area for all the festivities. During the day, the reain held off and I was hoping that it wouldn't rain until after the event, but unfortunately it rained for about 3 hours. Yes, we did decide to stay because Brooklyn was really looking forward for the fireworks. Will, Campbell's Dad, got there earlier to get our seats close to the stage and a front row seat for the fireworks. The kids didn't care it was raining because regardless of the weather they had a blast. Some of the festivities were delayed or cancelled due to the rain be we still had fun. It wasn't till right before the fireworks the rain had ended and we could put down the umbrella. Earlier that day we went and bought a big umbrella for the family. We never think about buying one but we knew there could be a chance that we would use it that evening. By the time the fireworks started, Madison was ready to go and Logan wanted to leave as well, but Brooklyn just looked into the sky and was at awe through the whole 30 minutes. When they were finished, we were dreading the ride home because we thought it was going to take forever but we got lucky and the cops opened up another ramp to exit out and Scott knew exactly where to go so we got home in about 20 minutes and got the kids undressed, cleaned up and to bed by 11:30. We were exhausted.
