dukeya!

Happy birthday America! I don't think our USA was founded just yet, but at least our nation's intentions were declared 230 years ago. That doesn't seem like such a long time given I just posted a picture last month of us lugging our stroller over a little bridge that's older than that. Even I've been around over 15% of our nation's entire existence.

Jaden loves to say "fie ya woks", and he loves to see them even more. We went to Santa Clara Central Park and kept the ground warm a few hours before the show. There was a KFC nearby, and it turns out Jaden likes fried chicken too.

The show was almost 20 minutes and kept Natalie's attention for about 5 and Jaden's for about 12. But the finale was spec-tac-u-larrrr to which everyone (our kids and the thousands of people around us) cheered. Yay!

Did you notice the obscure fireworks reference to Uncle Jimbo and Ned?
