Fireworks?

Matt bought this 3 foot sparkler and let Ella try it out. While she was having fun with that, he decided to play a prank on us. He also bought some firecrackers.....and wanted to scare Nate, Audrey, and I. So all of a sudden the firecrackers went off right next to us and Ella was TERRIFIED. Matt obviously wasn't thinking about Ella's reaction to this. Here she was holding this huge stick that was on fire and gunshots went off right by her! She ran at me (yes almost impaling me with the sparkler) and burst into tears. I think sometimes Dad's are too busy having fun to, um I don't know...THINK! haha she fully recovered from this traumatic experience don't worry.

Your funny. I am sure your pictures will turn out just fine. And I am glad to see that my husband isn't the only one who doesn't think before he does stuff. My mom and I are trying to get into photography a little and if you don't have someone taking your pictures we would love to do it. Plus we are cheap LOL.

That's too funny, that is so true about dad's isn't it. I'm sure he learned his lesson. :)
