For those of you that don’t know my husband, he is a pyromanic. That’s not actually always true – only on July 4th does he struggle with this illness. 🙂 My parents live in an area that is actually unincorporated, so we are able to shoot off fireworks there. Just to clarify, when I say “fireworks”, I am not talking Black Cats and sparklers. I’m talking a full fireworks show.
Here are some pics from our day. Unfortunately, I didn’t get any pics of the actual fireworks. Mainly for 2 reasons. One – I’m an awful photographer and don’t actually know how to turn off the flash on my camera. And two – I was too busy chasing Cooper around because I was terrified he was going to get really hurt. His shorts did get burned, but thankfully he was fine. He just kept saying “Da fireworks got me!”
