Each time, it fell over after it was lit, so that it would shoot off to the side instead of into the air. The first time it shot harmlessly between two groups of people. The next year the same thing happened, only it nicked my son and singed him in the armpit. He was only 7 at the time. I don't do the homemade variety anymore. I take the kids into the house while the menfolk enjoy their explosives.<br /><br />I'm Jenn, BTW :-) I've only just found your blog and am enjoying getting to know you through your writing!Jenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17470564337562063124noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1768302559422677049.post-41743829685396697542009-07-09T11:44:05.312-05:002009-07-09T11:44:05.312-05:00your fireworks photos are amazing!! gosh, now i a...your fireworks photos are amazing!! gosh, now i am wishing i had taken a few... and that sunset!! stunning :)<br /><br />maybe now you know why there sin't so much traffic where you were? gosh- that would have freaked me out. <br />sorry you didn't get to see hte whole show... but at least you didn't get scorched!!Dawnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03037135437820258553noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1768302559422677049.post-10692350444400216232009-07-08T12:03:00.206-05:002009-07-08T12:03:00.206-05:00That is crazy!

I thought that was just a normal thing. Usually we try to get whatever way the wind isn't blowing so less stuff comes our way.

This was our first year with the big dog fireworks ... and we were shocked by what came falling from the sky! I couldn't believe the chunks that fell. It was crazy ... but, being the quasi-rednecks we apparently are, we loved it!!Teri Lynne Underwoodhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10369869269013586166noreply@blogger.com
