Rain & Fireworks

Last night we all went with family & neighbours to see fireworks. We'd been building Ari up to it for a couple of weeks, so he was suitably primed for the spectacle. The weather all day was amazing, then in good ole New Zealand fashion, right on 5pm (start time) the weather closed in. Fortunately our neighbours had saved us some seats under a bit of shelter, so the night unfolded for the Mcd's, in a reasonably dry fashion (except when Ari decided he'd had enough of sitting around and wanted out in the rain - good ole dad of course, sent out to brave the elements).

All in all was a good night out with good people, and the fireworks were pretty flash, Ari of course loved it. So much fun watching him gasp at it all in wonder. Felt sorry for poor little bub in mum's tummy though, he must have been wondering what the hell was going on. He kept mum awake for quite a while after it.
