Lake on Fire

Every July 3rd we head to Conesus lake for the lake on fire. We have been going ever since I can remember first to my Grandparents cottage and now to my parents own cottage. It is something that we all look forward to . I don't have too many pictures this time around because ...well because 2 two year olds are hard to chase around especially when they want to go inside then outside then inside then the park then Christian has to turn on and off every light and ceiling fan in the place. And when the kids are outside the camera is inside, when the kids are outside the camera is inside.

...and they're off. I need to get an action shot camera.

Well we gambled and left so the kids could nap in the car on the way to the lake on fire. Well that didn't work out so well. I really thought they would like the bonfire, the flares and the fireworks though. So I pressed to keep them up and they LOVED it. They were tired from the day so they pretty much relaxed on Grandma & Grandpa's laps and stared at the fire and the fireworks. For being up so late they were so good. It didn't hurt that they were cozy and were fascinated by fireworks and the glow in the dark jewelry that other kids shared with them.

Our plan for the actual 4th of July was more fireworks but because the kids had no sleep and I had to work we just hung out around the house. Dan thinks watching fireworks on TV is the same thing. Uh -NO Dan!

And again with the action shot...

And now time for some flashback photos. I love to compare the kids at the same point years apart and obviously holidays are the easiest.
