Stadium of Fire

So it's a big thing here in good old Provo. I've never been and Rob's been a few times when he was a kid and it was much cheaper.

Well, we got tickets this year to see what all the hype was about. Hmmm we're both still wondering what all the hype is about?Maybe we're old, maybe staying out that late with 2 kids and screaming pre-teens is just about too much for anyone? Either way I think it'll be a long while before we go back.
Abby on the other hand thought it was "super-awesome!" She joined right in with the screaming girls and yelled to her hearts content. She had never heard the Jonas Brothers before and probably won't again, until she's 12 I'm guessing. But she squealed and danced and clapped her hands like she was one of their biggest fans. Sophie and I had make-shift earplugs and I kept looking over at Rob wondering when it would be over? Sophie even got into it a little shrugging her shoulders and bobbing her head to the music. It was some fun crazy family time. Next year I think we'll settle for sparklers on the front lawn.

Sophie wasn't sure if she liked the fireworks show

Jump rope on fire, dancers all around the stage and other various fire theatrics



These sticks, I think they called them fire trees would blow up with fire, not the best picture to show how intense they were but we could feel the heat coming off them.

I remember going once when I was little. I remember thinking it was awesome! It would be interesting to go again and see how it measures up now. At least your girls enjoyed it. That's the most important part right? Although nothing beats a good sparkler and some snap pops!

I think it's a bit sacriligious (sp) to say what you did about the stadium of fire...cant they X you for that?

I went like 5 years ago and enjoyed it. It was cool to be that close I guess. i think it'd be better is you enjoyed the band. Plus the jonas brothers would encourage a lot of emotions and screaming. Ha. Glad your girls had fun!

Oh looks like you guys had a lot of fun, well atleast the girls! I don't even remember going to one, just never really cared to go. I think the doing your own thing is always the funnest, with your own fireworks!
