Life, Death, and the Bat Outta Hell!

Yes, there is a bad word in the title of this post, but that is honestly the name of the firework that just about killed us tonight!
We went and shot off fireworks at my parents house tonight.  (don't worry, we saved half for tomorrow). I think going over to my parents house to shoot off fireworks has been a tradition since we got married, and we decided that we had better make a special effort to go this year since Landon may be on his mission next year! All went well, and they were fun.... up until the finale. Landon shot the big artillary firework called the Bat Outta Hell that shot 16 shots. One, after another, after another. The first one went up, and the second, and the rest.... well.... decided to shoot sideways, maybe it tipped?. Justin ran for cover behind my dads truck, and the rest of us sat there covering our heads, hoping we wouldn't be the next victim! Lol, mom was screaming in the back, and to think... I was seriously going to video it for the blog, but my brother lit it faster than I could turn the camera on... Oh well, good memories! Happy 4th of July Everyone!

Our stash of fun

Justin, Landon, and Travis
