Rockets

I have been insanely busy the last few weeks. Kelsie came out to visit for a week over the fourth of July and we had an amazing time! I got some great pictures of a few of the fireworks but i didn't even get any of the big ones. My newly discovered favorite thing about living here are the fireworks. Pretty much everything is legal. Except for the little baby bottle rockets. Being from Utah I have never really played with fireworks because my brothers are pyromaniacs and the 4th happens to be Ryan (my brother)'s birthday. So they always got to light them off which was fine with me, i liked to watch anyway. But this year Kelsie wanted to see some awesome fireworks too, so we got tons of big bottle rockets, roman candles, artillery shells, sparklers, strobes, smoke bombs, firecrackers, and i don't even know what else. We chipped in $40 and the neighbors chipped in $40 and we had one amazing show..

 very cool bottle rocket. so fun.

 Yes, this is a baby holding 4 Roman Candles at once.
