I have always been very wary of fireworks.... maybe it came from having a nurse for a mother. She always had a couple of horror stories about firework mishaps. But this year, I decided to jump on the band wagon and try to enjoy it. And it was fun! I actually think I had more fun watching and take cool pictures than I did playing with the fireworks, but that is cool with me. Madelyn had a great time playing with a few sparklers and then she and Grandmomma went in search of lightening bugs while the rest of continued to play. She so enjoyed that special search time with Grandmomma and they came back with a couple in a bottle!


Ben writing "Melissa" with his sparkler.
Ben trying to write "Ben + Mel" in a heart. I can see it, can you?



It is too bad this turned out so fuzzy, I think it still a cute picture.
One last "Hurray"
And the clean-up.... notice Buddy is doing all the work!

Oh my gosh! Those sparkler writing pictures are amazing!! Did you use a tripod?
They are cool, aren't they? No, I just held the camera as still as I could and had the shutter stay open while it was being drawn. The firecracker pics were taken that way too. We had so much fun playing. This is only a couple of A LOT of pictures! But no, no tripod (even though we lugged one down there with us....). They would probably be even better with a tripod.
