Salute to America

Last Thursday, we joined Mimi and Papa for the Salute to America concert and fireworks at Greenfield Village. We all had a great time, and the weather cooperated for the most part. Makenna and Owen amazed us all with their perfect behavior. They stayed up hours past their bedtime, with NO meltdowns! The concert was amazing, as were the fireworks. We agreed that our favorite part, however, was the live cannons being fired for the 1812 overature. Mommy Van about fell off her chair with the first boom...they were that close!

A short video of the fireworks. Can you hear Owen say "Wow!" after each one?
