Fireworks downtown

This past weekend we went downtown for the largest firework display ever in Pittsburgh. It was awesome!! We rode the trolley into the Point which was an experience for Autumn itself. She says "dots" when you ask her about her train ride and then she says "I sit on dots". (The seat fabric had dots). We went to the concert at the point, mingled, and got chicken on a stick...one of my personal favorite festival foods. One of the nicest perks to this exertion was that Grandma and Grandpa had a hotel room on the 21st floor that overlooked the Point. We headed up the room when Autumn got restless...and hung out watching National Treasure on TV while we waited for the show to begin. It was worth it. There were three different barges that we could see that set off amazing fireworks. Since we were inside the noise didn't bother Autumn as a previous firework display had. She was amazed, and it was so much fun to watch her watching the fireworks. We did catch the finale outside before we high tailed it back to the trolley home. Autumn stayed up the whole ride home...crazy!! What a fun night...

Here's Miles and Autumn on the trolley...
Here we are hanging out in the living room...
