Waiting For the Fireworks Have you ever waited for fireworks for what felt like forever, with only a phone for entertainment. Read on to find out more. This story took place on Mackinac Island in the itchy grass, it was like a field, with the sound of people everywhere. It took place July 4, 2015, in the evening. The people who were there was my dad, my mom, my sister and me. My dad used to have black hair, my mom had long red-brown hair, and my sister used to have bright curly blond hair, but now it is a lot straighter and a dirty blond. We were sitting on a picnic blanket, doing nothing, so we decided to do something entertaining while waiting for the fireworks to start. I thought “if the fireworks didn't start soon I would fall asleep". “I'm bored, when are the fireworks going to start?”my sister complained. “The fireworks will start soon" my mom replied. “But why can't they start now”I complained boredly. Because it is still too early" my mom replied My dad was silent. We started making funny faces and taking photos of them. I felt like they may have been one of the most hilarious things that ever happened to me in my life because they were so funny, and judging by everyone else's expressions they felt the same. We kept looking at the dimming sky hopefully and each time we looked back down again feeling like the fireworks would never start. I felt very disappointed that the fireworks still hadn't started. We continued taking hilarious photos as the light of the sun drained from the sky and evening came. The fireworks were almost ready to start. When the fireworks finally started we all yelled"yay" enthusiastically and I felt excited and we were all overjoyed as the bright, beautiful, and crazy loud fireworks that occurred made my ears ring. So that was my funny family story. Never ever wait for anything for a long period of time without entertainment not even a phone. I hope you enjoyed my funny family story. I hope you thought it was as funny as we did.
