The Fireworks

 The family came over last night and we set off fireworks. I did not serve much, just a bit of nibbles.


None of the girls are any of these cupcakes till I told them they were Barbie cupcakes.

The girls and their Dad


Let the fireworks begin! The grass was so dry that we set the yard on fire several times! I think this one and a few others look like the Cosmos.

Barbie cupcakes! They look delicious! Your snack tray looks so festive for a July celebration. The girls have grown so much and they are so pretty. You did a great job in capturing the fireworks as they went off.

Terrific fireworks photos and your granddaughters are so lovely. Love the patriotic snacks and the wise Grandma giving the cupcakes a name that prompted them to eat those mini-s
Fun family times.

Impressive but also looks/sounds scary to me... (Not a huge fan of fireworks... Here, it's mostly at New Year that we get them.)

Cute cupcakes! I love those mini cupcakes!
Wow on catching your lawn on fire. They’re illegal here but people do it anyway. Scary to me.

Laughter is the fireworks of the soul - I love that.
Phil and his son look alike.
I would have been afraid to set fireworks off in this season of hot and dry. It is awful here.
Barbie cupcakes - that is so funny.
I do love your fireworks. Pretty.

Those Barbie cupcakes are delightful. I would have had two! You always have the Yummiest nibbles for family get togethers. That's a cute photo of the girls and their Dad. I didn't see the fireworks this year, so thanks for sharing these pictures. Ours in town go off around 10:00, kind of late.

Have a good rest of the week, Ginny.
