Honestly, who doesn't love fireworks?

Immediately after Hillary Clinton delivered a powerful and historic acceptance speech at the Democratic convention on Thursday night, the crowd erupted with cheers. But unlike the Republican convention, the party had its celebration down.

Before the much anticipated balloon drop, fireworks rained down upon the crowd inside the Wells Fargo center in Philadelphia, much to the surprise and admiration of the onlookers. Hillary Clinton was also pretty pumped.

It's unclear if Clinton knew about the fireworks (she probably did), but her reaction is the inner child in all of us.

Clearly the balloons were also a hit with the Clinton family.

Bill might have had the most fun though.
