Morning Play Time

Josh walking to the sandbox, this kid is
 always so
focused when he is doing anything!

The sandbox is right outside the gates
and it isn't really there for kids to play in.
It is surrounded by garbage and
old cement barriers,
but whatever makes josh happy enough to
pass 30 or 40 minutes is good with me.

He loves playing out here. 

This is maybe a better view of  where we play.
For some reason the pile of sand keeps getting
smaller and smaller from when we first got here. 

So, there are fireworks that go off periodically through out the
day and while we were outside playing
we were lucky enough to see it happening.
That cloud of smoke is part of it but the confetti
 and streamers in the sky didn't show up on the camera. 

The firework streamers landing on us. 
Josh gets so scared of the loud noise especially at night, 
so I wanted him to watch what was 
going on and he kind of liked it.
