Harborfest Fireworks (or the lack there-of)


WHAT A RAINY YEAR FOR HARBORFEST!

The only part of Harborfest we do is the fireworks. So we went down to my parents and the WHOLE crew was going! Well we wanted to wait until the rain let up and we parked at my parents and WALKED to the fort to see them!

HAHAHAHAHA, well we left and it was sprinkling...we get down the street and it's down pouring! We walked all the way their and had a 45 minute wait with (about) SEVEN KIDS who were soaking wet and shivering. We would not have lasted!

With the possibility of the fireworks being canceled we decided to walk home :(


Not a dry spot on us, anywhere ;)

With soaked EVERYTHING we walked! Got almost back and don't you know it STOPPED! LOL just our luck! So we ended up watching them on television at my parents with all of us SQUEEZED into our family's clothes! HAHAHAHAHA we were a sight for sore eyes, DEFINITELY!

Even on t.v the firework ended up being a bust since it was so humid and foggy the smoke couldn't clear fast enough and MOST of the fireworks looked like lightning behind clouds, honestly!

I am extremely grateful that we didn't wait around with 7 soggy cold children and 8 miserable parent for fireworks that we couldn't even see!
