When we got to New Hampshire we heard about tons of things that we just had to do. Things like go see Boston, Go the Portsmouth, the beach, drive on the Kangamangus Highway, and go see the Atlas fireworks in Jaffery, NH "The best firework show in all New England" on August 21.
The Atlas firework show draws about 30,000 people every year for this magnificent show. It's held at an airport in a small city called Jaffery, NH. Atlas fireworks puts on this show for the public, for a small fee of $8 a person, and for potential buyers of their fireworks. It holds nothing back. The show is about 30 minutes long and is sync'd with music.
Well, yesterday, August 21, we were sitting at home and trying to find something to do and Shauna remembered about the fireworks. So we made some dinner (peanut butter and jelly sandwiches, grapes, cheez-its, gold fish, sour patch kids, and airheads) and headed off to Jaffery NH, which is only about 30 minutes away.
We parked on the airport runway, which proved to be not such a good idea later, we took our dinner, blankets, and chairs and found a place to sit. While waiting we bought $10 fries, played phase 10, relaxed, and enjoyed each others company.
At about 9:30pm the show finally started. Words do not explain the show!! All we could do is say, "WOW" and "Oh My Gosh" and laugh in amazement of the most amazing firework show that we have ever seen. Shauna recorded some of the middle of the show and also the very end, capturing the grand finale but trust me, the video does not serve justice!
So if you ever come to New Hampshire make sure it's on August 21 so you can travel to Jaffery, NH and go see the firework show!!!
This was in the middle of the show
The end reminds me of how the end of the world will look!! Just watch the video you'll see

Beatles Concert
We totally got to time travel and go back to 1964! We went and saw The Beatles in concert!!! They were amazing! Their accents were perfect, the sound was identical to the original Beatles and they even tried to portray the personalities of each of them! It was too cool! Way better than expected!!!! Love, love, loved it! It was totally radical!!! ;)
Here is a video... the cover band is actually called 1964 The Tribute (Beatles)
