we camped inside until the rain slowed down

It was time for the big fireworks:

We ended up having to shove a sparkler in this firework to get it to light. It was worth it!

Parachute fireworks

We used a torch to light most of our fireworks

haha. I love my lil' cousin Taylynne

I stole the idea to do this from a friend

sparkler fun!

we were trying to spell I love you...?

my uncle Jed.
how can you not take a picture of this?
 or mention that this was right before a firework flew over his head!?

Doing fireworks with my family is always a blast! 

Thanks to my dad who always puts on a show for us.

 Even when it started to rain, he was still out there lighting them. 

And a special thanks to my aunt and uncle for letting us host fireworks at their house this year.

I love you, dad!! I love you family! I love you fireworks...
