Pioneer Day

I'm super grateful for people who were willing to give up all they had, including some of their lives, to walk across a country in search for more religious freedom.

I wouldn't have been brave enough to do it.  Especially if it meant my kids might die.  

Without those pioneers, I wouldn't have the life I have today.  Grateful they had unimaginable courage.

So to celebrate them, we'll spend the evening lighting things on fire.












And in case anyone is curious, to get firework shots, you have to have a slow shutter speed (leave the shutter open longer).  And they work much better if your camera is on a tripod, but I didn't have one with me.
