Who needs fireworks?

For those of you wondering if Dr. John made it to Green Bay, he did. However the hotel he and Betty are staying at does not have internet so he will be coming to my house to post later today (sometime this morning is my guess).

He brought with him some fireworks. Don't get me wrong, I love fireworks as long as I am not responsible. This is a sore point with me because this family has a history of things going wrong with fireworks and last year was no exception. My daughter's birthday is right after the fourth, so HOH(Hunk of Husband) bought some on sale. We then had a fireworks show right next to our house where there is an empty lot.

Things were going well until I heard my brother say to my HOH "Did that just fall over?" and the next thing you know, all the fireworks started going off at once. The air was full of smoke and it was very loud. I was holding on to our golden retriever who was going nuts and my daughter started crying.

There was a car with a group of kids in it that stopped to watch the show and when it was over the driver said to my HOH "Dude, was that supposed to happen?" and HOH and the rest of us chime in "Noooooooo" to which the guy says, "Cool...thanks!" and drives away.

I hope I am able to report a safer outcome tomorrow. I do like fireworks, I really do but I will be glad when it is over.

Be safe!
