4th of July

Oh the pandamonium of the 4th of July! We went to Chads dads house to do some fabulous fireworks and eat some great BBQ food. Everything was going just swimmingly when disaster struck... Chad and Luke lit a fountain type firework and it started shooting off all these pretty colors when suddenly a gust of wind tipped it over.. Oh dear.. Everyone started to scatter into neighboring yards and into the garage because we were being shot with exploding colored fireballs!! One flew past me on my right and started a small fire in between the neighbors house and their garbage can! Then one was coming straight at me so up I went to get out of there and just then Scott was running in front of my to check out the fire so we bashed into each other. When this happened Scott lost his momentum and was hit with a blue fireball that was meant for me! It burnt a hole in his shirt and gave him a small burn. I ran into the garage with Megan and Jackie and finally it was over. We were in there talking and laughing about what just happened when I smelled something burning. We chalked it up to the small fire started at the neighbors and we went to see the damage done. I kept smelling something burning, so I checked the lawn chairs convinced something was still on fire somewhere. Suddenly I realized it was me!!! A fireball had snuck into the underside of my hair during the commotion and I didn't even realize! I found the source and started pulling chunks of my hair out, of it smelled so so so bad! I had to wear the hood on my hoodie the rest of the night because the smell was sickening :(
