One crazy night

We went to Austin's "First Night" again this year and we had a much different experience than last time. Last year we went early and the kids did a bunch of crafts and flew kites and we had cookies and hot chocolate, then the kids got tired and we headed home before dark...

This year we made it until dark and that is when things got crazy! There was the most psychedelic parade ever, all kinds of crazy light displays, and to top it all off they blew up a huge two story clock that they built just for the occasion. Watch at the very end of the video–there are huge chunks of burning clock falling down, and quarter sized embers raining from the sky. One landed in Brett's hair and caught it on fire!!! No Joke!

It was so crazy and so fun, and certainly a unique experience. Not to be missed. Happy New Year!
