If you don’t believe it’s a real tradition, I wrote a longer but similar post as this last year and even the photos are somewhat similar — but I swear these were taken this year on the 3rd of July. ;-)
My brother-in-law does all the fireworks and each year they’ve gotten more impressive as he’s learned what’s the best types and the best sequence to shoot them.
There’s a connection in this simple but genuine celebration back to my childhood because I always come away feeling I’ve truly celebrated the 4th.

It sure looks like fun, love those family gatherings. I had not thought about those sparklers for a long time. They were about the only thing we bought the children since we usually took them to the cities fireworks displays.
In our safety conscious society I don’t know if many parents let their kids play with sparklers but I can testify kids still love and are fascinated by them.
Fine pictures of a celebration of the 4th. I like the sparklers for their lighted quality and the ambient light still in the shot. The sky fireworks look great.
